I don't think you quite understood why this joke originated with Japanese speakers.

It does not work when simply migrated to a different group of people, unfortunately.

Damn. I thought it was the Japanese who say L instead of R and the Chinese who say R instead of L?

Oh well, just swap Chinese for Japanese and ignore any references to their Communist party! Hold on, I'll just rewrite it...

I don't really know how this joke came about. Japanese alphabet has no "r" sound, which means that many Japanese people cannot pronounce the "r" sound, because they never have to. So this is completely the wrong way round.

Chinese people generally don't have this issue, as both exist in the Chinese language, although Cantonese speakers tend to have more of a problem getting English pronunciation right, as the Cantonese dialect only has 45 different "sounds", northern dialects in general 46, both lacking most importantly the "e" sound (as in "deckchair" - hence a northerner would most likely say "fake" if they wanted to swear in English ), and Wu-dialect 51, comprising all that exist in the English language (49 I think iirc). Ethnic languages vary. You can often tell by the way English is spoken whereabouts people are from.

Yeah.

To be honest, I've met and I know a few Chinese people (Mandarin) and their English seems alright, no real issues with pronounciation.
