EDIT Languages, geographic distribution 5th letter of the Cyrillic alphabet and upper case letter corresponding to the lower case д (U+0434), used in all Slavic languages using the Cyrillic alphabet.


 
EDIT Transliteration Transliterates into Latin as \"D\" in international (ISO) and national (BSI, ALA, DIN, GOST) standards and is likewise transcribed.
 
EDIT Meaning 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.
