In many languages "and" is two letters (sometimes the same two letters that are found within common words). In Latin, for example, "et" is "and" and "et" is also found within many words.
The ampersand symbol (&) was widely used by medieval scribes in many languages so it's also possible that "and" is expressed by a single glyph and the same glyph might represent letters (a ligature or a single letter).
