| Aug 2, 2016 at 20:17 | comment | added | IAmInPLS | As a native french speaker, I pronounce the 'r' at the end of Madagasar. And yes, Gabon doesn't make your list. Anyway, this is not the intended answer. I am going to modify a bit the original puzzle, add a couple of countries and a hint to narrow this | |

| Aug 2, 2016 at 20:01 | comment | added | Jonathan Allan | @dcfyj well we can ask Lord of dark about the "r" - but I reckon it ends in a sound made with an open pathway in the mouth - AKA a vowel sound. | |
| Aug 2, 2016 at 19:53 | comment | added | Jonathan Allan | ...that should say "voiced alveolar fricative", but I'm not sure if the "aise" ending is considered a vowel sound (there is a pathway in the mouth as we make it, so ...maybe?) | |
| Aug 2, 2016 at 19:45 | comment | added | dcfyj | Well, I'm a native french speaker, and I can say that the r is not silent, just quiet :P. But I noticed afterword that you have malagasy up there too, so it's probably good to go. | |
| Aug 2, 2016 at 19:43 | comment | added | Jonathan Allan | Oh, the only one I'm unsure of now is Gabon "...Gabonaise" is a nasal fricative I think. hmm | |
