Avoiceless uvular trill is a type ofconsonantal sound, used in somespokenlanguages. It is less common than itsvoiced counterpart. The symbol in theInternational Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ʀ̥⟩, asmall capital version of theLatin letterr with a ring diacritic indicatingvoicelessness. The historical symbol representing this sound, ⟨ᴙ⟩, a reversedsmall-capR, appears sporadically on IPA charts as late as 1921, but no examples for the sound are ever given.[1]
