Unicode Version 17.0

ӗ

U+04D7 "ӗ" Cyrillic Small Letter Ie with Breve is a variant of the Cyrillic letter Ie that includes a breve diacritic mark, a short curved symbol placed above the character. This letter is primarily used in the Chuvash language, where it represents a specific vowel sound, often described as a close-mid front rounded vowel, distinct from the standard Cyrillic "е." It forms part of the extended Cyrillic block in Unicode, enabling proper digital representation and text processing for Chuvash and other languages that require this character. The breve indicates a short or reduced pronunciation, contributing to the phonetic precision of written Chuvash.
