Words: yer
Part of speech: n
Definition: Either of two letters in Cyrillic alphabets, which originally represented phonemically the ultra-short vowels in Slavic languages.
Example: For determining whether a yer is strong or weak, it is necessary to break the continuous flow of speech into individual words, or prosodic units (phrases which have only a single stressed syllable, and typically include a preposition or other clitic words).
