Hi everybody!I have a question about pronouncation of letter "r".When I was in Turkey on my holidays,I've for the first time realy listened to them,how they speak and-as turkish learner-what are they talking about.I understood 0,0001% but I got this:they say "r" in two different ways;hard,as in word "bir"(one) and soft,as in "onlar"(they).Same soft pronouncation of the word was almost allways after an "a","ı".Why so?Are there any rules about when and where you say hard or soft "R"? :-S
Thanks for answer(s)!

As I am a Turk, I think all "r"s are same.
not like in English; in English, "r" is too soft like there is no "r", but in Turkish, there is "r" always. By the way not like in German, Germans can't say "r" like Turks. Also you can hear Spanish "r" is some strong, so Turkish "r" is not like it too.
As I said, there is a "r", it is soft, but it always exist.
