Rry > ir: porrum > ✱porreum > poyre; but ✱horrearium? > orgięr (cf. Körting).

Rt-g > rdž and rts (> rs): ✱excŏrtĭcat > escǫria escǫrsa.

Rty > rts > rs ✱fortiāre > forsar, tĕrtium > tęrz tęrs. Convercio is learned.

Rvy > rvy rby: ✱cĕrvia > cervia cerbia.

Ry > r´, which developed into ir when it remained medial, but became r at the end of a word[72]: ✱exclariāre > esclairar, ✱donatōria > donadọira, ✱fĕria > fęira fięira, fĕriat > fęira, matĕria > madęira, ✱mŏriat > mǫira, primaria > premęira premięira (§ [23], 1), ✱punitōria > punidọira, varia > vaira, variāre > vairar; ✱a(u)gūrium > aür, cŏrium > cuęr, ✱donatōrium > donadọr, impĕrium > empięr, mĭnistĕrium > mestięr, ✱mŏrio > mǫr muęr, monastĕrium > mostięr (§ [45], 3), primarius > premięrs, ✱punitōrius > punidọrs. If the ry is preceded by au, it apparently remains unchanged: Auriācum > Auriac (Zs., XXVII, 559). Learned words have ri: boriebŏreum, contrari.

1. Adjectives in -er (-ier) and -or, coming from -arium and -ōrium, regularly have feminines in -eira (-ieira) and -oira. By the analogy of the masculine, there is a feminine in -era in parts of the west; by the analogy of the feminine, there is a masculine in -eir in Auvergne. The i of vair probably comes from the feminine vaira and from the verb vairar. The noun feira sometimes becomes fiera like a feminine adjective.
