New page

'''A''' (А, а; italics <span style="font-family: times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: larger">''А, а''</span>) is a letter of the [[Cyrillic alphabet]].

It commonly represents an [[open front unrounded vowel]] /a/.

In the romanization systems for the Russian, Bulgarian, and [[Ukrainian language|Ukrainian]] languages it is romanized using the [[A|Latin letter A]].

[[Image:Bem AzOK.jpg|thumb|left|Letter А in ABC by [[Elisabeth Bohm]] ]]
==History==
The Cyrillic letter A was derived directly from the [[Alpha (letter)|Greek letter Alpha]] (Α, α).

In the [[Early Cyrillic alphabet]] its name was {{Script|Cyrs|азъ}} (''azǔ''), meaning 'I'.

In the [[Cyrillic numerals|Cyrillic numeral system]], the Cyrillic letter A had a value of 1.

==Form==
Through history the Cyrillic letter А has had various shapes, but today is standardised on one that looks exactly like the Latin letter A, including the [[Italic type|italic]] forms.

==Usage==
In most languages that use the Cyrillic alphabet – such as [[Russian language|Russian]], [[Serbian language|Serbian]], [[Macedonian language|Macedonian]] and [[Bulgarian language|Bulgarian]] – the Cyrillic letter A represents an [[open front unrounded vowel]] /a/.

It is also used in the [[Ingush language|Ingush]] and [[Chechen language|Chechen]] languages to represent /ɑ/ and /ə/.
