Default Re: Ask me anything about Japan/Japanese

what do the Japanese think of www.engrish.com ?

People praise me all the time how good my English is for a Japanese guy, especially my pronunciation, but I still have trouble distinguishing the difference between "l" and "r." There's no such thing as "r" in Japanese, so instead, we use "l" to pronounce things. If "l" or "r" is somewhere in the middle of a vocabulary, sometimes I have to look up the dictionary, like I just typed "vocaburary" instead of "vocabulary."
