Unicode Version 17.0

U+0435 "е" Cyrillic Small Letter Ie is the lowercase representation of the seventh letter in the Cyrillic alphabet, where it functions as a vowel pronounced similarly to the "ye" in the English word "yes." It is commonly used in languages such as Russian, Ukrainian, and Bulgarian, and it is distinct from the Latin letter "e" in both its visual form and its phonetic value, though it often appears identical in many common fonts, causing potential confusion in digital text processing. This character plays a key role in the orthography of numerous Slavic and non Slavic languages that utilize the Cyrillic script, maintaining a consistent sound across different linguistic contexts.
