==Note on sign counts== [[Image:Tironisches et.png|right|frame|Tironian ''et'', [[Unicode|U+]]204A {{angbr|β}}; with stroke; and capital, [[Unicode|U+]]2E52 {{angbr|βΉ}}.]] Tironian notes can be themselves composites ([[Typographic ligature|ligature]]s) of simpler Tironian notes, the resulting compound being still shorter than the word it replaces. This accounts in part for the large number of attested Tironian notes, and for the wide variation in estimates of the total number of Tironian notes. Further, the "same" sign can have other variant forms, leading to the same issue.
