O (О, о) is a letter of the Cyrillic alphabet, representing the vowel /o/ word-initially and after hard consonants. In Russian it may represent the sounds [ɐ], [ʌ] or [ə] in unstressed positions, due to the phenomenon of akanye.
The letter's traditional name is on, meaning he, or that (masculine noun) in Old Church Slavonic. It is derived from the Greek letter omicron (Ο, ο).
It looks exactly like the Latin letter O.
Broad On
Broad On (Ѻ ѻ) is a variation of the Cyrillic letter On (О, о) used in Church Slavonic:
- as the first letter of a word's root:
- in the initial position (ѻгнь, ѻтрокъ),
- after a prefix (праѻтецъ),
- in compound words (ѻбоюдуѻстрый),
- in two geographical names (іѻрданъ—Jordan River, іѻппіа—city of Jaffa) and their derivatives,
- as the numerical sign to represent the number 70.
A misleading Unicode name of Broad On is Round Omega. (Notice that the Cyrillic Omega represents 800 instead of 70).
