Dunno about Albanian, but I've heard Spanish described as /r/ and /4/,
which is more like what we learned in school (which, granted, may have
nothing to do with reality ;).
Problem with Asha'ille is that the special maybe-loanword trill aside,
there's only supposed to be one rhotic. And said rhotic keeps changing its
mind on how it's to be pronounced.
