A joke, used primarily by Muricans while ordering sushi in Chinese restaurants, that may come off as plain racist instead of racist but funny since the Chinese have no problem whatsoever saying the word English. (Well, ok, yeah, it's going to be Een-guh-lee-shuh at first because of the short syllable thing, but the *L* is fine, dammit.)
It's the Japanese who can't say L to save their lives. (Literally. In World War II, American GIs would use "lolapalooza" as a shibboleth. Chinese allies could make the perimeter easily, "Nips" starting in with rara... got finished up with lead flying their way.) Since the Chinese and Japanese have some history, it makes the confusion especially unappreciated. (Mandarin can't say L at the *end* of a sound either ("towel" turns into either "tower" or "tawo"), but that's beside the point.)

A language (Ranguage), used primarily (Primariry) by people who are learning English, who currently 'speak a Chinese'. This is very stereotypical and found in countries where English is the first (Primary) language. To speak fluent (FRUUUENT) in the Chingrish language (Ranguage) you have to change l's to r's and add emphasis on certain words. Now that you have mastered Chingrish you will be able to communicate with the Chinese community. GUNG HAI FAT CHOIIIIIIII

The ABC version of chinese(cantonese or mandarin). Consists of badly mispronounced chinese words and english. Used mainly to communicate with fobby relatives, parents and fobby classmates who refuse to speak English.
Those who speak real chinese look down at people who use this form of chinese by making fun of them whenever they can because they are insecure faggots.
