Yes, when y is used at the beginnings of words, it is con, com and its homonyms (and it can also stand alone for these).
- Some scribes used y with almost equal frequency beginning and end.
- Some scribes only used it at the end.
- Some used it often at the end and sometimes at the beginning (the same general pattern as the VMS position of the glyph).
- Some scribes used it at the end and used the reverse-c (which is also in the VMS) at the beginning.
