Engrish (イングリッシュ Ingurisshu) is a slang term for the misuse of the English language by native speakers of some East Asian languages. The term itself relates to Japanese speakers’ tendency to inadvertently substitute the English phonemes R and L for one another because the Japanese language has one alveolar consonant in place for both.
