Letter of the Uzbek Latin alphabet From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oʻ (o with turned comma above right; minuscule: oʻ) is the 25th letter of the Uzbek Latin alphabet, representing the close-mid back rounded vowel /o/. It was adopted in the May 1995 revision of the alphabet, replacing Ö.[1] It was also used in the Karakalpak alphabet until 2016, when it was replaced with Ó. In the Uzbek Cyrillic alphabet, it corresponds to Ў.

In Unicode, Oʻ is not encoded as a precomposed character, but rather as a sequence of U+004F O LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O or U+006F o LATIN SMALL LETTER O and U+02BB ʻ MODIFIER LETTER TURNED COMMA. Since the modifier letter isn't readily typeable on the Uzbek Latin keyboard layouts shipped with Microsoft Windows as of 2022, the substitution of other characters such as U+0027 ' APOSTROPHE and U+2018 ‘ LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK is very common.[2]
