No and no. The hard sound of "r" in spanish, although mostly writen "rr"= is not writen double when a word stats with that sound, because all words s= tarting with the character "r" use the hard sound. And as for the second que= stion, there are two similar words in spanish: "car=E1cter" and "caracter" t= he first refers to one's personality and the second to what is called "lette= ral" in lojban lingo.


You misunderstood my first question.  You spelled it as "repesentac= i=F3n", with no "r" after the "p".
Regarding the second question, my dictionary gives only "car=E1cter" for= both meanings, but it's from 1983, and, in any case, you are probably bette= r informed about it than I am.
