We have seen a lot of well-established Chinese Set Phrases being translated into English. Although the translations appear to be reflecting original meanings, more than often they are in "Chinglish", not how American really say it. I am sharing what I have found (examples):
1. 人山人海
Chinglish:
People mountain people sea.
English:
1) There is a large/huge crowd of people.
2) A sea of faces.
For example: Looking out upon the sea of faces, Mr Green delivered a touching speech. (看着一片人山人海的听众，格林先生发表了一篇动人的演说。)
