U with grave (У̀ у̀; italics: У̀ у̀) is a letter of the Cyrillic script.

Usage

[edit]

⟨У̀⟩ is mainly used in South Slavic languages, mostly commonly in Bulgarian and it is used to differentiate homophones.[1]

These are what they call this accent "indefinite" because it can be on any syllable and is not linked to given syllables, and it does not depend on the number of the syllables regardless – the accent can be on any of those: темен̀уга, пристан̀уша.[2][3]

Computing codes

[edit]

Being a relatively recent letter, not present in any legacy 8-bit Cyrillic encoding, the letter У̀ is not represented directly by a precomposed character in Unicode either; it has to be composed as У+◌̀ (U+0300).
