Оо
The О ( minuscule о ) is a letter of the Cyrillic alphabet . In the Russian alphabet it is the 16th letter. There the О at the beginning is a word and before consonants for the sound [ o ] . Due to the vowel reduction (see Russian phonetics ) can accept the О in unstressed syllables, different sounds, such as [ ɐ ] or [ ə ] .
The letter comes from the Greek omicron and has its counterpart in the Latin alphabet common in large parts of Europe (see O ). All three letters are identical in appearance.
