English term or phrase: tap
In American English, if a /t/ sound is between two vowels, and the sound vowel is not stressed, the /t/ can be pronounced very quickly, and made voiced so that it is like a brief /d/ or the r-sound of certain languages. Technically, the sound is a 'tap', and can be symbolized by /t̰/.
