Somebody posted this is the comments section:

照片上英国馆从视觉上把我刺到了

I know all the words but just can't get the meaning on the whole sentence. Any ideas?

Thanks

"I was visually struck by the UK Pavillon in the photo."

照片上英国馆从视觉上把我刺到了

This sentence couldn't be uglier, very badly written indeed.

How about 照片上的英国馆很刺眼（刺目）? Yet there's the possiblity that the poster meant 照片上的英国馆雷到我了.

Those pictures are awesome...thanks for sharing...I can't wait to make a trip out there this summer to see it for myself...

The poster's Chinese is perplexing. If he meant the British pavilion was amazing or magnificient. It would have been better to say 照片上的英国馆让人叹为观止, or 照片上的英国馆炫亮夺目.

Hey guys,

I have a question, I am planning to spend some time in shanghai this summer and i was planning to go see the expo. How much time do you think i should plan to visit the expo? 1 day, 2 days, more?? And do you think its better to buy the ticket in advance or is it possible to buy it once we get there? Thanks!

EDIT: oops, just realized i probably did not post this in the right section, sorry
