Depends. All my r's involve bunching, but postalveolar and retroflex coarticulation will happen when leading the vowel and not following it. Vowel cardinality or tenseness or some sort of mora system seems to play into it to, but i need to listen to myself and my family more closely to find out for sure. I can give you a list of words tho Real, round - retroflex & bunched Tractor, trouble, trip - postalveolar & bunched Beggar, for, power, rip, running - exclusively bunched Wriggle, write, wrong - lips rounded and my tongue is so bunched I'm actually tucking the tip tight against my bottom gum line. Body of the tongue is still sulcal. English's wr phoneme existing how it does in my dialect helped me learn how to throat sing lmao.
Rounding lowers F2, and for front vowels, also F3. A cool side note: because lower F2 is also associated with back vowels, lip rounding exaggerates this effect, which is why rounding is so strongly associated with back vowels and non-rounding with front vowels.
I bunch. Upon further observation my tongue height doesn't change, my jaw and lips do. My tongue only has bunched and not bunched, sulcal, lateral, atr/rtr, etc etc. I also realized my English stressed syllables are lower in pitch instead of higher. They're louder, but they're lower. Grrr phonology is a rabbit hole

I haven't even watched the video yet but this is my favourite thumbnail so far!
It’s very, “Can I interest you in my collection of morphemes?” Haha

“Do you bunch, though?”
Cutie and a language nerd 😍
Does this mean that there's no difference at all between [j] and [i̯] and that the only difference between [j~i̯] and [ĭ] is syllabicity?
So an r-buncher makes the rhotacised vowel sounds without the tongue tip up? How does that person make the /r/ consonant sound???

How does rounding of vowels show up in the formants? Like, if you do an acoustic analysis, can you tell the difference between i and y?

It appears I bunch
