In some states, however, it happens mostly with any when preceding a consonant. The "Carioca" accent (from the city of Rio de Janeiro) is notable for this. Spanish Among the Spanish dialects, Andalusian Spanish, Caribbean Spanish (descended from and still very similar to Andalusian and Canarian Spanish), Castúo (the Spanish dialect of Extremadura), Northern Colombian Spanish (in cities like Cartagena, Montería, San Andrés and Santa Marta, but not Barranquilla, which is mostly rhotic) and the Argentine dialect spoken in the Tucumán province may have an unpronounced word-final , especially in infinitives, which mirrors the situation in some dialects of Brazilian Portuguese. However, in Antillean Caribbean forms, word-final in infinitives and non-infinitives is often in free variation with word-final , which may be delateralized to , forming a falling diphthong with the preceding vowel (as in dar 'to give'). Thai The native Thai rhotic is the alveolar trill. The English approximants /ɹ/ and /l/ are used interchangeably in Thai. That is, Thai-speakers generally replace an English-derived r (ร) with an l (ล), and when they hear an l (ล), they may write an r (ร). Turkish In Istanbul Turkish, is always pronounced except in colloquial speech for the present continuous tense suffix as in ('going') or ('I was writing') and ('one') when used as an adjective/quantifier (but not other numbers containing this word, such as ('eleven')). In these cases, the preceding vowel is not lengthened. The unfavorability of dropping can be explained with minimal pairs, such as ('stole') versus (imperative 'ring'). In some parts of Turkey, like Kastamonu, the syllable-final is almost never pronounced: gidiya instead of gidiyor ("she/he is going") and gide instead of gider ("she/he goes"). In gide, the preceding e is lengthened and pronounced somewhat between e and a. Chinese Northern Chinese accents, centered around Beijing, are well-known as having erhua which can be translated as "R-talk". This normally happens at ends of words, particularly ones that end in an -n/-ng sound. So a southern Chinese might say yī diǎn (一点) ("a little bit") but a Beijinger would say it more like [(j)i tʲɚ] which in Pinyin is sometimes rendered yī diǎnr to show if the word can be rhotacized. The final "R" sound is strongly pronounced, not unlike Irish or American accents. Uyghur Among the Turkic languages, Uyghur displays more or less the same feature, as syllable-final is dropped, and the preceding vowel is lengthened: Uyghurlar 'Uyghurs'.
