Coincidence, or am I corrupted? Probably the latter. I’m not the only one who noticed this, given that I found it on this particular site: University of Hong Kong Offers CLIT Courses . Now the acronyms maybe easy to file and order courses, but maybe they should have passed it through other people’s eyes before sticking with “CLIT”. The courses are relatively tame to what we may think it is, “Ways of Reading: Film, Literature and Culture” and “Questioning Difference: Gender, Postcolonialism and Culture”. Seriously, come on. Imagine having to note down the course ids on your resume, of course, in real life, it’s just the degree/course name. It made me smile, Chinglish in a different light.
