ℹ️ About

The Samaritan Letter Rish (U+0813) is a consonantal character within the Samaritan script, derived from the ancient Paleo-Hebrew alphabet. It represents the “r” sound and is functionally equivalent to the Hebrew Resh. Technically, it is an ‘Other Letter (Lo)’ with a Right-To-Left (R) bidirectional property, essential for RTL typesetting in digital liturgical texts.

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ר (Modern Hebrew Resh) or ر (Arabic Ra).
