Slovak

[edit]

In Slovak ⟨ŕ⟩ is used to represent /r̩ː/, the geminate syllabic alveolar trill.

It is used in Lower Sorbian to represent /rʲ/, the palatalised alveolar trill.

Basque

[edit]

In Sabino Arana's orthography[1] of the Basque language, ⟨ŕ⟩ was used for the /r/ contrasting with ⟨r⟩ which was used for /ɾ/. However, in the standard Basque alphabet, /r/ is represented with ⟨r⟩ in syllable-final positions and rr between vowels.
