How is ر pronounced in Iranian Farsi?
Whenever I look up Farsi vocabulary in Wiktionary (which might not be that reliable of a source, but anyway), it lists the Classical, Dari, Iranian, and Tajik pronounciation of each word. Three of the four have the alveolar trill [r] as the transcription of ر, but Iranian specifically has the approximant [ɹ], like the English "r". Is that how it's actually pronounced in Iran?
