Dear all,
Sorry about the double post....
What I meant with this:
>In my 1979 IPA table, the uvular flap AND uvular trill both are given with a capital R?
>Outdated? So I did not know what you meant with small cap r:
is that in the present IPA chart (on the Net), the uvular flap R disappeared?
I see that with small cap r you mean what I would call capital R:
>>This [R] sound (the IPA symbol is a small cap R) is heard in some substandard varieties
of French (Edith Piaf often used it)
>>If there is no vibration at all, but the back of the tongue approaches the uvula, we can
get a uvular voiced fricative or approximant (the latter if there is no sound of
friction). Both are symbolised in the IPA with an upside-down small cap R; here let's use
[R/] for easier reference (let's say that / = "upside-down").<<
***In the IPA chart, there's no R/ under approximant?
Best,
Aayko
