		The Yr rune ᛦ is a modification of the Algiz rune* ᛉ, originally for Proto-Germanic final z, Proto-Norse final R, Old Norse final r and eventually y (see Algiz).
		The rune is a special case insofar that the reconstructed name is not acrophonic, because the sound expressed by it in the Old Futhark only appears word-final: continuing Proto-Germanic z, it is transliterated as Proto-Norse R, becoming Old Norse r.
		For this reason, the rune became superfluous and was dropped in the Young Futhark, while it was assigned a new sound value in Anglo-Saxon.
