I with acute (Cyrillic)
Appearance
I with acute (Cyrillic) (И́ и́; Italicized: И́ и́) is a rare letter used in the Cyrillic Script used in some Slavic languages. This letter looks the exact same as the letter I (И и), with its only difference being the inclusion of an acute accent.[1][2]
Usage
This letter is optional in use and usually not used in situations other than being used in dictionaries or textbooks, as a way to express if a word in a language using Cyrillic has a vowel that is stressed or not. For example, in Russian: духи́ (perfume), стои́т (stand).[3]
