Ka (Cyrillic)

Encyclopedia : K : KA : KAC : Ka (Cyrillic)

Ka (К, к) is a letter in the Cyrillic alphabet. It looks very similar, derives, and corresponds to the Latin letter K but, as with most Cyrillic letters, the lowercase form is simply a smaller version of the uppercase. It represents /k/, a voiceless velar plosive except when followed by ь or any of the palatalizing vowels, such as in кедр, kedr /kʲɛd̪r/ ('cedar' in Russian).
