Can Japanese Tell The Difference Between Japanese, Korean and Chinese?

Bro, if we had anything in common with indians than Pakistan would not have been created. The difference between us and indians is far greater than the difference between us and Iranians, Afghans etc.
So true.

Chinese speak with nasal sound, while Japanese speak from stomach. Korean language is pretty distinct as well. I can usually tell from name or when someone speaks.
 
. .
Chinese are more taller and athletic than the Japanese. Japanese are very light-skinned, almost white. Koreans are usually bigger and heavily built than both Chinese and Japanese. Koreans vary more in skin-tone as well.

Probably most Chinese you saw are from Canton or southern China. Chinese looks varies from northern Asians to southern eastern Asians. Japanese and Korean can perfectly fit and blend in a Chinese province. As for skin tones, the darkest Chinese are from Tibet and very southern Chinese provinces like Guangxi and Yun Nan, the lightest skin color Chinese from Sichuan and Guizhou where you don't see many sunny days, and north eastern China. It's way more easier to tell the difference between northern and southern Chinese than that of Chinese, Japanese and Koreans.

Fron my own experience, the only closest, reliable way to tell is to look at their grooming n dressing.

An alternative is to listen to how they speak english.

Visual-

Chinese: dressing less trendy, no dyed hair. For mainland chinese men-usually short, square-top hairstyle.

Korean/Japanese: fashionable, usually bright colourful clothes. Dyed hair

From speech(assuming speaking in english). This is easy n i accurately tell a person's nationality just by hearing his/her accent in english.

Singaporean Chinese: very deep-toned. full of affixes of 'la', 'lo', 'lei', 'ah~' at the end of sentences. This is due to the heavy Hokkien dialect influence, which is the lingua franca Chinese dialect in Singapore n is naturally present even in those that do not speak it. Malaysian chinese, even though their lingua franca is cantonese- tend to speak the same way too.

Hongkong Chinese: very high-pitched n also full of some of the affixes found in hokkien. its because Cantonese is the lingua franca chinese dialect. Watch youtube n listen to how hongkong celebrities speak in english n u will know what i mean.

Taiwanese chinese: exaggerated, highed-pitched, unatural american-slang-ridden english. Maybe due to american media influence. But when they speak in Mandarin(which is full of 'oh' affixes at the back, i can str8 away tell they r from Taiwan.

Mainland Chinese: awkward, high-pitched english, maybe due to anerican english thought in schools. they tend to break words into individual syallbles n pronounce words beginning with 'V' with the 'W' sound(maybe due to no 'V' sound existing in Mandarin). E.g Victoria will be said as 'Wee-toh-li-ya'. When they speak in Mandarin, its more 'standardised' with 'qiao she yin' n some 'e yin', unlike the dialect-influenced Mandarin here in Singapore.

Koreans/Japanese: high-pitched n almost same as mainland chinese. The Japanese tend to pronounce words beginning with 'R' with a short, slight rolling sound like the 'R' in spanish.

I can atleast tell them apart.
Koreans are very stylish and fashion conscious. But they have very sharp look. The just don't look like Chinese, don't know why but they do. In Lahore we have several Koreans studying in my university. The Japanese are plain dumb. Lol they would worry about things that doesn't even matter. They are uglier than Chinese or Koreans. They have very wide mouths. I can almost 99 percent identify them.
Then there are Chinese, Chinese are the poster prefect as the Asian. They have more prominent Asian eyes. One can tell them. They have very round faces. Their accents are major give away.

I once was travelling in a bus in Lahore along with my my hazaras friend from quetta. A family on the back seat was constantly pointing him out to their kids. They thought he was Chinese. They are pointing out to their children to look at the Chinese. They don't know that he is not Chinese but local Pakistani.
Anyways my friend said that I am from quetta, I am hazara. And they are stunned. We Pakistanis don't even know our own people.

As far as I know

Japanese can't spell 'L' , ex : dericious (delicious).

Koreans can't spell 'F', ex : hwaiting (fighting).

Chinese (southern) can't spell 'R', ex : vely (very).

Northern Chinese seems can spell any alphabets since they use Putonghua (Beijing standard Mandarin). CMIIW

Its easier when they speak english

That means you guys can't tell the difference between a Chinese and Japanese who grew up in America if they share similar fashion and accents.

I can't tell the difference between a Singaporean Chinese and a Singaporean Korean too. :lol:

Here's a game to guess who's Chinese or Japanese.

Most Japanese have bad teeth. It is very possible that the person is a Japanese if you see teeth like below:
