ℹ️ About

The Latin Small Letter R With Fishhook (ɾ) is a phonetic character used in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) to represent an alveolar tap or flap. This sound is produced by a single contraction of the muscles so that the tongue is thrown against the alveolar ridge; it is famously heard in the “tt” of the American English word “better.”

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with f or the IPA retroflex flap ɽ.
