The voiced uvular tap or flap is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. There is no dedicated symbol for this sound in the IPA. It can specified by adding a 'short' diacritic to the letter for the uvular plosive, , but normally it is covered by the unmodified letter for the uvular trill, , since the two have never been reported to contrast.

The uvular tap or flap is not known to exist as a phoneme in any language.
