should be a ゆっくり注意

Polished the translations a bit. Some of the earlier translations seemed more accurate to me...

Caution: Air Conditioning

lol

It looks like Marisa stole some of his stock.

"Coerced Donations"?

Isn't the more common term Mugging?

"Mugging" is too broad of a term to apply here, not to mention it explicitly says "coerced donations" as opposed to just a simple mugging or robbery.

I'm not questioning the translation, I was just commenting the the sign itself.

Oh gods, I laughed at Youmu's.

lol, beware of dog, that's one hell of a dog

Editings a foot...

Is this really chinese? Indeed the traditional character "氣" is used rather than the common Japanese simplification 気. But from what I know of Chinese grammar, the 注意 would normally be at the beginning of such a sign, wouldn't it?

Putting 注意 in front would make it a sentence, which is not what is intended.
Putting it in the end emphasizes the warning, similar to saying in English "Warning, dog inside" as opposed to "Be warned of a dog inside".

Chinese grammar is not very strict/established, and text written on signs are usually not in the format that goes on paper for any language I know of.

I've seen 氣 used in Japanese novels before, though. Granted, it was part of the name of a skill of someone who was half-Chinese, but still.

It's Taiwanese. So the traditional character "氣" is used.

unicode: I see, thanks for the info. The grammar on these signs could as easily be Japanese though, so it sort of comes down to the forms of the kanji (traditional/simplified/japanese), I guess.
toutetsu: Well "Taiwanese" (Hokkien) is also a Chinese language.

But anyway all of this is moot, since the artist's website makes it pretty obvious that he is Chinese. So the tag stays :)

lolol. Kero kero kero

I lol'd sooo hard @ "Beware of Dog" and "Air Conditioning"

Bloody brilliant.

Would use these as TF2 sprays

Pay attention Raaaan!

Gensokyo sounds like it'd be a fun place to live.
