Djerv (Majuscule, Minuscule ) is one of the Cyrillic alphabet letters that was used in Old Cyrillic. It was used in many early Serbo-Croatian monuments to represent the sounds /d?/ and /t?/ (modern ?/? and ?/?).[1] It exists in the Cyrillic Extended-B table as U+A648 and U+A649. It is the basis of the modern letters ? and ?; the former was in fact a direct revival of djerv and was considered the same letter.[1]
Djerv was also commonly used in Bosnian Cyrillic, where it was an officially used letter. When it was combined with the letters ? and ? it was represented for the sounds /?/ and /?/.
The letter ? was formed in 1818 by Vuk Stefanovi? Karad?i? after several proposals of reforming Djerv by Lukijan Mu?icki and Gligorije Ger?i?.[2][3][1] However the letter ? (also based on djerv) was first used by Dositej Obradovi? in a direct reform of djerv.[4][5]
