English signs in China are accidentally telling people to f*ck things
Here is Chinese Radical 51: 干.
It has many meanings, and is often translated as: to manage, to work, to do, or to dry.
It is also slang for, well…to f*ck.
This has caused some minor problems in China, and especially in places where they need to put up signs in English.
