Get Your ‘Hug a Vegetarian’ Day Signs Here!

Avatar of Sunny-S

Posted September 20, 2010 by Sunny Subramanian

As you probably already know, International “Hug a Vegetarian” Day is this Friday! This year, we really wanted to capture the international aspect of the day, so we’re introducing some brand-new signs for you to use! We have signs that you can print out in Spanish, French, Hindi, Arabic, Japanese, and English. Check ‘em out!

Don’t feel like you have to use one of our signs though—we also love when you get creative and make your own! And if you know a language that we don’t have a sign for, you can, of course, make one in that language, too—I know you’re resourceful like that.

Whatever you do, be sure to bring your sign (or signs) to school and take some pics with you and your friends holding them. Then send those photos to StreetTeam@peta2.com, and we’ll hook you up with 1,000 Street Team points.

How many hugs are you gonna get on Friday?

-Jason

    “Przytul mnie, jestem wegetarianinem/wegetarianką” – Polish for ‘Hug me, I’m vegetarian’ (male/female)
    and “Przytul mnie, jestem weganką!” (Hug me, I’m vegan! – feminine form)

    I love knowing that no animal doesn’t have to suffer because I’m hungry. Animals are our friends, and people need to start realizing that.

    In Finnish, Free Vegetarian Hugs= Ilmainen kasvissyöjä Halaus:)

    I loved the signs! I will totally use them tomorrow! :D
    but I believe that if the first sign is in spanish it’s wrong…
    it should say “Soy vegetariano/a Abrazame!” (Abrazame soy vegetariano which is the same thing) or “Abrazos vegetarianos gratis!”
    that would be for american spanish idk about the spanish from spain…

    If anyone wants a sign in German, you could write either of the following (I’m 99% sure they’re right… I’m not a native German so I don’t know the slang / common idioms, but grammatically I’m pretty sure it’s right).

    Kostenlose vegetarische Umarmungen! (Free vegetarian hugs!)

    Umarm mich — ich bin Vegetarier! (Hug me — I’m a vegetarian!)

    GO VEGETARIANS!!! I think people should always think about thier food before they put it in their mouths, Think about the animals before they died. In cruel conditions, and just beated alive.

    I work with a lot of Armenians. It would cool if there were a sign in Armenian or Russian.
    I don’t know how to write the characters which is why I’m leaving the comment here.

    I have always lived in Los Angeles but my family and I went to Mexico for my parents wedding. So we came back to LA. I don't like LA but were here already what can I do unless I move out and find my own housing. I have always liked animals and it was til I was like about 14 when I learned about tests they do on animals and I began to explore animal cruelty because I was interested it in it. I have watched videos that just broke my heart so that's why today I'm doing all I can to not buy anything that has harmed an animal and I'm vegetarian .
