It has been suggested that this article be merged into O (Cyrillic). (Discuss) Proposed since July 2008. |
Broad On (Ѻ, ѻ) is a variety of the regular Cyrillic letter "On" (О, о) used in Church Slavonic:
- as the 1st letter of 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 number 70.
A misleading Unicode name of Broad On is Round Omega. (Notice that the Cyrillic Omega represents 800 instead of 70).
