Er (Р р; italics: Р р) is a letter of the Cyrillic script.

It commonly represents the alveolar trill /r/, like the "rolled" sound in the Scottish pronunciation of ⟨r⟩ in "curd".

History

The Cyrillic letter er was derived from the Greek letter rho (Ρ ρ).

The name of er in the Early Cyrillic alphabet was рьци (rĭci), meaning "speak".

In the Cyrillic numeral system, er had a value of 100.

The Cyrillic letter er (Р р) looks similar to the Greek letter rho (Ρ ρ), and the same as the Latin letter P (П in Russian).

As used in the alphabets of various languages, р represents the following sounds:

alveolar trill /r/, like the "rolled" sound in the Scottish pronunciation of ⟨r⟩ in "curd"
palatalized alveolar trill /rʲ/
