Wiktionary IPA symbol R is messed up. [View all]
In the standard German pronunciation of words that begin with an r, like "reich", the first IPA symbol should be R, which indicates a uvular trill, but when I look up "reich" in Wiktionary, the R is upside down, which indicates a uvular fricative. This is true on three different web browsers. I wonder what's going on. I'm using a Macintosh computer.
