The /ɛr/ is a tricky sound to learn. First, it’s often confused with other R-colored vowels, such as /ɝ/ and /aɪr/. Second, the spelling for the /ɛr/ sound is.. well, it's often inexplicable, as this vowel is represented by eight different combinations of letters. Here are just a few examples: 'ar' as in "scare", 'er' as in "very', 'air' as in "pair", 'arr' as in "arrow", 'err' as in "cherry".
