"Decimal" I With Grave
Cyrillic orthographies that have ⟨І⟩ (the so-called "decimal I" or "Ukrainian I") can use ⟨ì⟩ or ⟨í⟩ as its stressed variant (in modern Ukrainian and Belorussian as well as in old Russian or Serbian orthographies; also in Church Slavonic). The difference between ⟨ì⟩ and ⟨í⟩ is the same as one between ⟨ѝ⟩ and ⟨и́⟩.

Famous quotes containing the words decimal and/or grave:
“It makes little sense to spend a month teaching decimal fractions to fourth-grade pupils when they can be taught in a week, and better understood and retained, by sixth-grade students. Child-centeredness does not mean lack of rigor or standards; it does mean finding the best match between curricula and children’s developing interests and abilities.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
““To-morrow,” Mrs. Viveash interrupted him, “will be as awful as to-day.” She breathed it like a truth from beyond the grave prematurely revealed, expiringly from her death-bed within.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
