Etymology

Proposed in 1908 as part of the new Latvian spelling by the scientific commission headed by K. Mīlenbahs, which was accepted and began to be taught in schools in 1909. Prior to that, Latvian had been written in German Fraktur, and sporadically in Cyrillic.

Etymology 2

From da with the same meaning, from Proto-Slavic *da, from Proto-Indo-European *doh₂, which is pronoun Proto-Indo-European *de-, Proto-Indo-European *do- 'this' in lative case. Simplification occurred due to modern vowel reduction as the final /a/ reduced to /ə/.

Usage notes

• Sometimes switched with the letter ⟨r⟩ between vowels, ⟨w⟩, or ⟨y⟩ in a word due to lenition of /d/ to /ɾ/ such as dadaan can become daraan. Compare flapping in pronunciation of English medal. The letter does not change if the next consonant is an /ɾ/ (such as madurog does not become marurog) or /l/ (such as madilim does not become marilim).
• Some words starting with the letter can also become ⟨r⟩ if the last letter of the preceding word is a vowel, ⟨w⟩, or ⟨y⟩. Examples are daw/raw, dito/rito, dami/rami, and damot/ramot.
• On all cases stated above, it is acceptable whether ⟨d⟩ or ⟨r⟩ is used. However, the said phenomena do not occur on proper nouns nor recent loan words.
• In the Teresa-Morong dialect, the letter r may interchange with the letter on any position in the word even when not followed by a vowel, ⟨w⟩, or ⟨y⟩. (ex. ragat/dagat and bayar/bayad). Exceptions are recent loanwords, or if the next consonant after a /d/ is /ɾ/ (such as in durog) or /l/ (such as in dila).
• Often switched with the letter ⟨r⟩ on non-initial positions in early texts which may indicate ancient pronunciation of words.
