Latin letter R with tilde From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
R̃ (lower case: r̃), is a Latin R with a diacritical tilde. In the International Phonetic Alphabet it represents a nasalized version of a trill consonant, or in broader transcription also a nasalized flap or tap.
In Lithuanian, the R with tilde “R̃, r̃” is rarely used and is found in some grammar texts, dictionaries or textbooks. The tilde is used like the circumflex, it indicates the long tonic accent. Therefore, the R with a tilde indicates an /r/ that is part of a diphthong with a tonic accent.
It is not to be confused with Ȓ (R with inverted breve), R̄ (R with macron) or Ř (R with háček).
It was used in the Albanian Agimi alphabet for the voiced alveolar trill, now represented by the digraph Rr.
