The alveolar fricative and the apicoalveolar fricative are two different fricatives. For example, Basque has a laminal fricative and an apicoalveolar fricative. There are several fricatives using the alveolar ridge, but with different parts of the tongue, apex, blade, etc. azalea_pomp

Alveolar tapped fricative for /r/ in conservative RP[edit]

I think it's far more common than a genuine alveolar tap. [ˈveɾ̞ɪ] and [ˈpɾ̞̊ɪtɪ] (devoiced here) sound to me more genuinely RP than [ˈveɾɪ] or [ˈpɾɪtɪ], with an actual tap. The amount of friction might not be the greatest, so it might be best described as a somewhat constricted apical alveolar approximant.

It'd be great if we found a source that discusses it... Mr KEBAB (talk) 13:17, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Misquote regarding the Turkish "Rüya"[edit]

Under the listing for the "voiced alveolar tapped fricative", under Turkish:

Even though the r in "rüya" seems to be said to be the aforementioned sound, the study cited instead mentions a "voiced fricated alveolar tap".

This is confirmed by both the recording for the "voiced alveolar tapped fricative" differing from what it actually is, and my İstanbul Turkish accent (the de-facto "standard" accent) and that of many others around me.

As I'm not a specialist regarding phonetics, I have refrained from making any edits from the fear I might be mistaken. Please make, or tell me to make appropriate changes if I am not. KaanK06 (talk) 16:02, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Possible mistranslation regarding Russian 'заезжать'[edit]

Under the listing for the "Dentalized laminal alveolar", under Russian:

The translation for заезжать (zaezžat') is listed as 'to pick up'. The translation for this term is 'to drive into' or 'to stop by'. 2601:600:8F00:C3B:D12C:62C5:C318:7FDB (talk) 02:48, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
