A new comb

I bought a new comb a few days ago.



It was printed on the packing that it has "minus ion"... Erm, shouldn't it be "negative ion" instead?

Anyway, i have a habit of reading the labels and user manuals for stuffs that i bought, even for products like shampoos, cleansers, toothpaste, etc. So as usual, before i started using this new comb, i turned to the back of the packing and started reading the label:



Of course, i wouldn't be reading the Japanese words, so i studied the Chinese descriptions. Then i noticed that the words with big fonts highlighted in black("antimicrobial" and "antistatic") weren't translated into English at all. So i proceeded to read the English descriptions too.



Hmmm, i think whoever did the translation beetter gets someone else to check his/her work before releasing any more products to the market.
