↑ The realization of the phoneme /r/ varies; some speakers pronounce it as an approximant [[[|ɻ]] ] virtually identical to that used for r eal in the western United States, while others pronounce it as a tap [[[|ɾ]] ], similar to the pronunciation of ⟨t⟩ and ⟨d⟩ between vowels in American and Australian English. When geminated, it may be pronounced as a lengthened approximant [ɻː] , a tap [ɾ] , or a trill [[[|r]] ].
