>>I do hear "kw" but I don't consider that "it is pronounced." French "r" is very distinct so it is either there or not. Michel of course is a native french speaker although it could be that Canadian pronunciation is different. I am learning by listening to the course read by native french speaker from France. I also listen to the a youtube courses produced by a Spanish guy for Spaniards learning french. I suspect that this Spanish guy learned french in France.

>Be assured that the "r" is really pronounced. :)
Starting at 2:00 min there are several times the "je crois" is pronounced and there ain't any 'r' there :)
