Rolling the “R” in Spanish, also known as the trilled R, is a distinctive feature of the language that can be challenging for non-native speakers to master. It is produced by vibrating the tip of the tongue against the roof of the mouth, creating a characteristic rolling sound.
Rolling the “R” correctly is not only important for pronunciation but also for comprehension, as it can change the meaning of words. For example, “caro” (expensive) and “carro” (car) are pronounced differently due to the rolled “R” in the latter.
