- medium: The sign is printed on a card.
- domain: The context of the sign is that it is two friends meeting each other but they smell something rotten and they use the Pidgin language to express what they’re thinking.
- audience: The sign is intended for the general public. Mainly only the locals would probably understand it and nonlocals would most likely have a harder time.
- function: The sign is trying to make the receiver of this card laugh and is used for entertainment purposes.
- language: The language that is dominant on this sign is Pidgin or HWC with a little English.
The phrase “Ey! Howzit!” is translated to “Hey, how are you?” of “Hey what’s going on?”. “Howzit” is a combination of the words “how”, “is”, and “it”. “Ho” is translated to “Woah” and “dat” is translated to “that”. The last sentence on the card, “You think it’s rotten mangos or what?” translates to “Do you think it’s rotten mangos?”.

There are several of these signs posted around this elementary school. They stand out since they’re bright yellow, however, I was surprised there were none in Spanish.
