The vibrant simple velar side is an allophone of the velar lateral approximate in some languages ​​of New Guinea, like Kanite and Melpa. The extremely short duration of the [ʟ] in the intervocalic position (20-30 ms) deserves to be called a vibrant, according to Peter Ladefoged and Ian Maddieson.

There is no specific symbol for this sound. However, a & lt; L & gt; in small case with extra-short diacritic, [ʟ̆], could be used to transcribe this sound.
