Latin yeru[1][2] or I with bowl[3][dubious – discuss] (majuscule: Ь, minuscule: ь)[note 1] is an additional letter of the Latin alphabet based on the Cyrillic soft sign. It was introduced in 1928 into the reformed Yañalif, and later into other alphabets for Soviet minority languages. The letter was designed specifically to represent the non-front close vowel sounds IPA: [ɨ] and IPA: [ɯ].[4] Thus, this letter corresponds to the letter ⟨I ı⟩ in modern Turkic alphabets,[5][6][7][8][9][10] and the letter yery (⟨Ы ы⟩) in Cyrillic.
