M (Cyrillic)

Symbols with similar faces: M · Μ · Ⅿ · Ϻ · ℳ · ᛖ

M , m (name: um ) - the letter of all Slavic Cyrillic alphabets (13th in Bulgarian , 14th in Russian and Belarusian , 15th in Serbian , 16th in Macedonian and 17th in Ukrainian ); It is also used in the scripts of some non-Slavic peoples. In the Old and Church Slavonic alphabet it is called “ thought ” [1] , which originally meant “think” (in modern Church Slavonic the name of the letter no longer coincides with the form of the verb of thought ). In Cyrillic it is the 14th in a row, it looks like Early Cyrillic letter Myslite.png and has a numerical value of 40; in the glagolitic account 15th, looks like GlagolitsaMislete.gif and has a numerical value of 60.

The origin of the Cyrillic letter is Greek mu (Μ, μ) ; the verb is erected there, but more often not directly, but through the medium of Coptic writing . Since the creation of the civil font, an uppercase letter has been drawn identically to Latin and Greek, and a lowercase letter is a reduced copy of it. In Church Slavonic fonts, the form of the letter usually also did not differ too much from the current one (unless the middle, instead of the V-shape, could be U-shaped or T-shaped); only the capital M borrowed from cursive looks strange in some fonts by Ivan Fedorov : like the current handwritten letter w , in which the leftmost vertical line is twice as high as the others.

The modern name “um” is first noted in “The Self-Teacher, or Full Russian Alphabet”, 1823.
