However, not all of these remain a uvular trill today.

The uvular trill is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.

There are two main theories regarding the origination of the uvular trill in European languages.

While the former part is simply a uvular trill, there is no standard linguistic term for the latter.

As with most trills, uvular trills are often reduced to a single contact, especially between vowels.

Emphasis is on a demonstration of predominance, by over-pronouncing certain syllables and letters (such as the uvular trill).

The instrumentalist performs an uvular trill, which produces the traditional growl sound from the jazz idiom.

Features of the uvular trill:

The "r", trilled or flapped in other dialects, is either pronounced as an uvular trill or not pronounced at all.

This includes the voiced uvular fricative, voiceless uvular fricative, and uvular trill.

Some people never learn to produce it; they substitute other sounds, such as the velar approximant, the uvular approximant, and the uvular trill (often called "French R").

An exception are the languages of the Sorbian minority in Saxony, eastern Germany, which are typically spoken with a uvular trill rhotic due to German influence.

'Rhotacism' may refer to several phenomena related to the usage of the consonant 'r' (whether as an alveolar tap, alveolar trill, or the rarer uvular trill).

Unlike other uvular consonants, the uvular trill is articulated without a retraction of the tongue, and therefore doesn't lower neighboring high vowels the way uvular stops commonly do.

It has neither l-vocalisation nor nd-velarisation, it does not employ the alveolar trill but the French uvular trill, and it has more French loanwords than the other varieties.

The jokes are usually told with a characteristic Jewish accent (stretching out syllables, parodying the uvular trill of "R", etc.) and some peculiarities of sentence structure calqued into Russian from Yiddish.

The Rs are uvular trills, as in French, which probably spread to Bergen some time in the 18th century, overtaking the alveolar trill in the time span of 2 to 3 generations.

It has ejective consonants, click consonants, a uvular trill, a relatively large number of affricate consonants, no prenasalised consonants, and a rare form of vowel-height (alternatively, advanced tongue root) harmony.

Scanian dialects have various local native idioms and speech patterns, and realizes diphthongs and South Scandinavian Uvular trill, as opposed to the supradental /r/-sound characteristic of spoken Standard Swedish.

In the northern parts of the canton, the "r" is pronounced as a uvular trill, whereas in the city around the lake and in the southern parts, it is pronounced as an alveolar trill.

The rhotic used in Denmark is a voiced uvular approximant, and the nearby Swedish regions of Skåne, Blekinge, southern Halland and southern Småland use a uvular trill or a uvular fricative.

Generally speaking, classical choral and operatic French pronunciation requires the use of an alveolar trill when singing, since an alveolar trill is easier to project than any guttural sound, be it a uvular trill or a uvular fricative.

In Western Europe, a uvular trill pronunciation of rhotic consonants spread from northern French to several dialects and registers of Basque, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, German, Hebrew, Judaeo-Spanish, Norwegian, Occitan, Portuguese and Swedish.
