The voiced uvular fricative or approximant is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is , an inverted small uppercase letter ,〔Based on the approximant and the general tendency to rotate letters in the IPA rather than invert them, might be expected. However, early in the history of the IPA, that letter had been used for the voiceless fricative, now written , paralleling for the voiceless and voiced trills.〕 or in broad transcription or (if rhotic) . This consonant is one of several collectively called guttural R when found in European languages. Because the IPA symbol stands for both the uvular fricative and the uvular approximant, the fricative nature of this sound may be specified by adding the uptack to the letter: . The approximant can be specified by adding the downtack: . For a voiced pre-uvular fricative (also called post-velar), see voiced velar fricative. ==Features== Features of the voiced uvular fricative: In many languages it is closer to an approximant, however, and no language distinguishes the two at the uvular articulation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Voiced uvular fricative」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
