I would also point out that as the mouth transitions from an unvoiced uvula=
r affricate to a vowel, it will pass through a velar or even palatal approx=
imant.  In other words, as the mouth moves from the shape of a {Q} to the s=
hape of one of the vowels, it passes through an /r/ shape.  Notice that the=
 non-existent "r" is only heard when the {Q} is followed by a vowel and not=
 when it is final.
