Asian's have no problems with pronouncing the 'r' sound.
e.g. they can say "fry"
Most have problems with 'l' sounds, so something like "fly" would become "fry".
I've heard Mariah being called Maria alot. 'Maria Curry'
I thought "l"
and "r" were the tough ones. I was told that when I studied Japanese by our tutor, but maybe it's different for chinese.
Anyway, it was a joke which I guess some will take the wrong way as often happens on this board
