SCREW MARKS REMAIN

The EU employs 20 terminologists who ensure that technical terms and EU institutional jargon are translated appropriately. Still, mistakes are made:

When the commission reopened its Berlaymont headquarters in Brussels in 2004 it attached the sign "Commission Européenne" which should have read "Commission européenne" in correct French.

The faux pas was quickly corrected but you can still see the screw marks from the old E if you look carefully.

Yeah, and if you look closely you'll see the marks where France has, at one time or another, tried to screw just about every other country in Europe.
