thumb|Latin R with dot below
Ṛ (minuscule: ṛ) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, formed from R with the addition of a dot below the letter. It is used in the transliteration of Afro-Asiatic languages to represent an emphatic r. It is used in transliterating Indo-Aryan and East Iranian languages to represent either syllabic r or a retroflex flap.
