A with Circumflex (А̂ а̂; italics: А̂ а̂) is a Cyrillic letter, In all its forms it looks exactly like the Latin letter A with circumflex (Â â Â â), used in the Udege alphabet which was created for the Udege language.[1] The letter was made and used in the most common version of the alphabet: the Khabarovsk version.[2][3]
Usage
[edit]M. O. Maksymovych proposed new letters for usage in the Ukrainian Alphabet, based on the etymological principles of spelling to preserve the old writing of Ukrainian. Of the letters proposed А̂ was one of them.[4]
This letter is also used in some dialects of some South Slavic languages such as Bulgarian and Serbian (глâва or крâк).[5]
Computing codes
[edit]Being a relatively recent letter, not present in any legacy 8-bit Cyrillic encoding, the letter А̂ is not represented directly by a precomposed character in Unicode either; it has to be composed as А+◌̂ (U+0302).[citation needed]
