Cyrillic Capital Letter O Letter Meaning
“О” (Cyrillic capital letter O) represents the Cyrillic letter corresponding to the “O” sound in languages that use the Cyrillic alphabet. It is distinct from the Latin capital “O” and from the Cyrillic lowercase “о”, so case and script matter in names, labels, and search text. In text, it functions like any alphabetic character: forming words, initials, and headings. Because it is encoded in Unicode as U+041E, it can be handled consistently across browsers, operating systems, and fonts when the required Cyrillic-capable font is available.
