U+A75B "ꝛ" Latin Small Letter R Rotunda is a historical glyph variant of the lowercase letter "r" that was used primarily in medieval and early modern manuscripts and typography, especially in Old English, Middle English, and other Western European languages. It features a distinctive rounded form lacking the usual stem, often appearing after vowels or rounded letters like "o" and "b" to improve visual flow in handwriting. Though obsolete in modern standard texts, it remains significant in paleography and historical linguistics for the study of original document transcription.
