The dissimilation rule



In any syllable that is stressed, the liquid consonant is preserved:
 * про́рубь (literary)
 * коридо́р (literary)
 * револьве́р (literary)
 * пропо́рция (literary)
 * секрета́рь (literary)
 * верблю́д (literary)
 * Селиге́р (literary)
 * февра́ль (literary)
 * флю́гер (literary)

In any syllable that is not stressed, the liquid consonant is changed:
 * про́рубь (literary) > про́лубь (dialectal)
 * > коридо́р (literary) > колидо́р (dialectal)
 * > револьве́р (literary) > левольве́р (dialectal)
 * > пропо́рция (literary) > плепо́рция (dialectal)
 * > секрета́рь (literary) > секлета́рь (dialectal)
 * > Сериге́р (dialectal) > Селиге́р (literary)
 * велблю́д (dialectal) > верблю́д (literary)
 * > флю́гел (dialectal) > флю́гер (literary)

If the syllable is closed, stressed and has two liquid consonants, the first liquid consonant is preserved, and the second liquid consonant is changed:
 * > февра́рь (dialectal) > февра́ль (literary)
