Description of what is on the sound file:
This file demonstrates the difference between r /r/, rt [t`] and t /t/. If you are unable to reproduce the difference between rt and t, you may say [rt] instead of the version most natives use (a retroflex sound) - however, you probably will not pass as a native, depending on who you are speaking to.

However, getting understood is more important than passing as a native, right?
