O with diaeresis (Ӧ ӧ; italics: Ӧ ӧ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script.
In all its forms it looks exactly like the Latin letter Ö (Ö ö Ö ö).
O with diaeresis is used in the alphabets of the Altai, Khanty, Khakas, Komi, Kurdish, Mari, Shor and Udmurt languages.
Usage
[edit]In Altai, Khakas, Khanty and Shor, it represents the close-mid front rounded vowel /ø/, like the pronunciation of the ⟨ir⟩ in "bird" in non-rhotic dialects of English.
In Komi, it represents the schwa /ə/, like the ⟨a⟩ in "allow".
In Kurdish, it represents the near-close near-back rounded vowel /ʊ/, like the ⟨oo⟩ in "book".
In Mari, it represents the open-mid front rounded vowel /œ/, similar to /ø/.
In Udmurt, it represents the open-mid back unrounded vowel /ʌ/, like the ⟨u⟩ in "up".
In Russian books until the beginning of the 20th century, the letter Ӧ has been sporadically used instead of Ё in foreign names and loanwords (for example, the city of Cologne, Germany, which is Köln in German, might have been rendered in Russian as "Кӧльн").[1]
In Tatar, this letter appeared in the 1861 Cyrillic orthography by Nikolay Ilminsky. This letter was replaced by Ө in 1939.
O with diaeresis and macron
[edit]O with diaeresis and macron (Ӧ̄ ӧ̄; italics: Ӧ̄ ӧ̄) is a letter from the Cyrillic script. It is used in the southern dialects of the Selkup language, to indicate a long Ӧ.
