Izhitsa - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography (473 words)
Izhitsa is still in use in the Church Slavonic language.
Izhitsa with kendema is not a separate letter of alphabet, but it may have personal position in computer encodings (Unicode is the case).
Historically, izhitsa with kendema corresponds to the Greek upsilon with dialytika (Ϋ, ϋ), but the orthographical meaning is quite different: Greeks use dialytika to prevent building diphthongs out of adjacent vowels, whereas Slavonic izhitsas with kendema may occur anywhere, even with no other vowels nearby.
