Re: French r

My french pronunciation has always been a little bad, but when I try to
pronounce french I tend to treat the trill and fricative as
allophones... the fricative is slightly more common in my speech if I
say things in french and listen to myself... I always thought that was
the case in french. Maybe it is because the two sound quite similar to
my ears... and I find the trill slightly easier to do.
