Oneproblem many bilingual signs suffer from is their having different linguistic errors of varying degrees of seriousness.This study was carried out to investigate different linguistic errors, including grammatical, lexical and spelling, errorsfeaturing in a sample of bilingual signs in Iran.

Findings suggest that most errors in bilingual Farsi-English signs arelexical ones, though grammatical and other errors also have fairly high frequencies of occurrence in them.
