[[Standard Basque]] uses a trill for (written as "r-", "-rr-", "-r"), but most speakers of the [[Lapurdian]] and [[Low Navarrese]] dialects use a [[voiced uvular fricative]] as in French. In the [[Southern Basque Country]], the uvular articulation is seen as a [[speech defect]], but the prevalence is higher among bilinguals than among Spanish monolinguals. Recently, speakers of Lapurdian and Low Navarrese are uvularizing the [[Flap consonant|tap]] ("-r-") as well, thus neutralizing both rhotics.
