I learnt someething new, for most of my life I thought that Smilodon meant scalpel-tooth, or two-edged tooth. It seems that I was wrong. Smile in English means smile in Greek, the sign says so.

Do you not have a marker pen? You could have crossed it out and written in the correct word...
What they will have done is just googled it and seen the first thing that comes up - "modern Latin, from Greek smilē ‘smile’ + odous, odont- ‘tooth’" - and then clearly not read any further to find out that a smile is a type of knife.
