The Japanese pronunciation of "r" is not the same as our pronunciation, and after a month of taking this class I still can't say it right. It's supposed to be more of a "d" sound, some sites I've read say more of an "l" sound. I usually get frustrated and just pronounce it as an r, but every time I do I can't help but think that I sound like Scooby Doo. Ra ri ru re ro?
