"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)
“Confession is always weakness. The grave soul keeps its own secrets, and takes its own punishment in silence.”
—Dorothy Dix (1861–1951)
