Here's a confusing one:
Is this the men's or women's restroom?
The Chinese says "Men, do not enter" (more literally: "Men: halt!") But the English "Men's stop" implies that this is the station or pit-stop for men! Also, foreigners often can't read Chinese, but many will memorize the characters for "man" and "woman" so as to avoid embarrassment at public restrooms. But of you look for 男 (man) here, you'll still get it wrong!
