List of Cyrillic letters

De (Д, д) is a letter of the Cyrillic alphabet. It represents /d/ a voiced dental plosive except word-finally and before voiceless consonants, when it represents a voiceless [t] and before any palatalizing vowel, when it represents /dʲ/.

It arose from the Greek letter delta; the major graphic difference with its Greek equivalent lies in the two "feet" below the lower corners of Greek letter delta. Like El, it has two typographical variants: one where its top is square, and one where it is pointed (like delta).

The handwritten form of capital letter De appears like Latin D as the printed version shown here is not comfortable enough to be written quickly. The handwritten lowercase letter looks a bit like a Latin g and it is joined to a following letter by its tail. In cursive type, the lowercase form looks more like the lowercase Latin d: Д, д.

It is used in the title of the movie Borat also with the letter я, though incorrectly, where it replaces the A in the word, printed as "Boядt". This is probably because the letter looks "foreign" to most of the English speaking world. This is an instance of faux Cyrillic.

It also makes up the mouth of the character Giko Cat in Shift-JIS text art, commonly seen on 2ch.

The following table lists the different methods for encoding the character electronically, in both its majuscule (capital) and minuscule (small) forms.
