For spanish-speakers, check this: "PRATO DE ALOZ" (when it should be "plato de arroz"). It's demonstrated that they can pronounce the r and the l. I've been told that they have the same symbol to this sound, and that's why they tend to misplace the sound, but I don't know it for sure. Can a chinese confirm or disconfirm this, please? In japan the letter "L" do not exist, thats why they pronunce "R" instead of "L". Oh and there cant be a consonant without a vocal next to it (except TSU), so they use the "U" (a very soft U) between consonats for example DOG they say DOGU. | ||
