Lallation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Lallation is an imperfect enunciation of the letter "R", in which it sounds like "L", as frequently found in infantile speech.

The speech pattern has been particularly associated with the use of the English language by Chinese people[1] and Japanese people.[2] The use of lallation has thus been a common feature of Western stereotypes of East Asian people.
