De (Cyrillic)

De (Д, д) is a letter of the Cyrillic alphabet. In Italic it looks like this: Д, д It is pronounced like English D.

It arose from the Greek letter delta and its major orthographic difference to its Greek equivalent lies in the two "feet" below the lower corners of Greek letter delta.

The handwritten form of capital letter De appears like Latin D as the printed version shown here is not comfortable enough to be written quickly. The handwritten lower case letter looks a bit like a Latin g and it is joined to other letters by its tail.
