Old Italic Letter Er

20/39

𐌓 is an Old Italic letter for the R sound, from a family of ancient scripts that includes Etruscan. Etruscans adapted Greek letters for their language. Its rho-like outline can be mistaken for Latin P; other Old Italic alphabets drew R differently.

Text symbol

What 𐌓 means

It represents R.

Old Italic names a family of related alphabets used for several languages in ancient Italy. Etruscans adapted Greek letters to write their language; Etruscan writing served trade, ownership marks, dedications, and funerary objects. The earliest surviving Etruscan inscription dates to about 700 BCE.

𐌓 has the rho-like outline, but Old Italic alphabets did not all draw their R-letter the same way.

Why does 𐌓 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
