Clingish

When a guy thinks a girl is clingy but ends up being the one who is too clingy for her!
Person 1: My boyfriend won't let me go out to the mall, the gym, or with my girlfriends. He thinks that I flirt too much and that guy are going to hit on me. Now I lost all of my friends and dignity. :(

Person 2: What a clingish douche!

Chingrish

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.)
Hey! Chang! Hit us up with some of that Chingrish! Ching chong ling long ting tong!

Tamade SB! My name is Chaahng and I haffa no probalem speak Engelish! You arways cannot teo Chinese from Japanese. I *hate* fucking 小日本!

Brooo... not cool. You shouldn't be so racist, man.

Chingrish

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
