Sound values

Variants of the Cyrillic script are used by the writing systems of many languages, especially languages used in the countries with the significant presence of Slavic peoples. The tables below list the Cyrillic letters in use in various modern languages and show the primary sounds they represent in them (see the articles on the specific languages for more detail). Letter forms with a combined diacritic which are not considered separate letters in any language (notably vowels with accent marks which are sometimes used in some languages to indicate stress and/or tone) are excluded from the tables, with the exception of ѐ and ѝ. [a] The highlighted letters are those of the basic (original) Cyrillic alphabet; archaic letters no longer in use in any language today are not listed.

Notes

  1. 1 2 3 ѐ and ѝ – considered variants of е and и, respectively, not separate letters – are included here because they are used in some South Slavic languages for preventing ambiguity and have been assigned separate Unicode code points.
  2. 1 2 3 The letters з́ and с́ only appear in the Montenegrin alphabet, which is otherwise identical to the Serbian alphabet and was not given a separate column.
  3. In normal Russian texts ё is written without the dots, that is it appears as е. The dots are sometimes added to prevent ambiguity or in children books.
  4. 1 2 3 4 In the indicated languages, ъ indicates that the preceding consonant is not iotated.
  5. In Ossetian, ъ is combined with consonants to indicate new phonemes, most commonly ejective consonants.
  6. In Chechen, ь is combined with both consonants and vowels to indicate various new phonemes.
  7. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Only used in borrowings, not in native words.
