(Redirected from П)
'Pe' (П, п) (formerly referred to by the
mnemonic name '''pokoy''') is a letter of the
Cyrillic alphabet, representing the consonant unless followed by a
palatalizing vowel when it represents . It arose directly from the
Greek letter
Pi (Π, π). The shape of capital printed Pe can be described as a square with the bottom line missing, not to be confused with
El (Cyrillic), which has a curved left. A capital Pe looks exactly like the Greek capital Pi, and small Pe looks like a smaller version of the same.
