roddy Posted March 28, 2008 at 01:13 AM Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 at 01:13 AM I suspect what happens is that unvoiced sounds sandwiched between two voiced sounds will become voiced. The uo of duo and ao so shao are voiced. That said it's not even a proper 'r', I think it's just a lazy flick back of the tongue between the two vowel sounds which ends up sounding more like an 'r' than anything else. And for extra credit, here's a very old topic about this kind of stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
