Ambiguous, i.e. resolved as 'par' or 'per'
CN: Sorted at beginning of alphabet

(1677) 'ar, er, ir'-abbreviation (vowel followed by 'r'): a short vertical stroke, sometimes with a curl. Ambiguous, i.e. resolved as 'aer', 'ar', 'eer', 'er', 'ir'. The cases where the stroke appears to replace 're' could be seen as scribal inaccuracies: see 'he’' for 'h’e'. The '’' for Latin 'ri' actually stands for a superscript 'i': see p’mq
