ʁ vs ʀ

N.B. later review has shown me that the fricative is off in pronunciation: what I did was half-trilled, and should be much softer. Apart from that, should be all in order.

Basic look at differences between /ʁ/ vs /ʀ/, two sounds I've seen often confused in language and conlang circles.

[ryuko]

both of those are trills, you can clearly hear the alternating sound of a trill with both but one was more forceful than the other. what you did was a fricative trill and a non-fricative trill, pure uvular fricatives exist and do no sound like that.
source: I am a phonology student that natively speaks a dialect of Arabic where /ʁ/ is very rarely trilled.

Finally someone on the internet who correctly pronounces the uvular trill

[Devono-kr]

I can hear the difference but can't say the difference

[wyattscott]

The uvular trill is very useful for imitating any of the other trills. If you can't roll your Rs then make the post alveolar approximate and the uvular trill at the same time. It doesn't sound exactly the same though.

For me it's the German 'R' vs. the Russian 'R'.
A neverending battle.

[me-specifically]

for me its one or the other, if i figure out how to say /ʁ/ i cant say /ʀ/, if i figure out how to say /ʀ/ i cant say /ʁ/

What would really help is a diagram of the tongue. I don't immediately get the difference between uvelar velar and post-velar. But I do immediately see the difference if you show me a tongue diagram.

Upside down capital R vs right side up capital R

[ḍinobhāī]

How do I pronounce /ʀ/? I can’t distinguish if from /r/ and it keeps coming out as /ʁ/.

[miewwcubing]

Theyre different phonemes in my language luckily

[ellenorbjornsdottir]

how the hell did you so smoothly pronounce the trill

[kulupu_kasi]

this is just wrong, lol
you're doing a uvular fircative-trill [ʀ̝] for the first one, and a uvular trill for the second [ʀ]

[chinmayhejmadi]

I can only do the uvular trill when my throat isn't parched xD

[Yahya-sbyo]

I can differentiate between them so easily

[kirilvelinov]

We have only one rhotic
I pronounce it as Velar fricative

[ポラス-bf]

and that's why people call me weird

[kirilvelinov]

I pronounce uvular sounds as velar lol
q=k
G=g
R=gh
N=ng

[hahawpoqktzotsyd]

first one is trill of the back of tongue and second one is front i guess??

[arandomperson]

how tf did you pronounce a uvular trill?? i thought they were impossible(also kinda sounds like a regular [r]) we need you to be strapped to an MRI machine and look at your tongue movements

[hieratics]

And then there's /x/ and /γ/ which i don't see no difference whatsoever
