I with grave (majuscule:Ѝ, minuscule:ѝ) is a Cyrillic character representing a stressed variant of regular letter и. It is not a separate letter of alphabet. Most regularly this letter is used in Bulgarian and Macedonian languages to prevent ambiguity in certain cases, like distinguishing the pronoun ѝ (her) from the conjunction и (and, also). When not available, it is often replaced by an ordinary и (not recommended, but still orthographically correct) or by letter й (formally, it is considered as spelling error), or even a Latin-based ù.
Ѝ can also be found in accented Serbian or Church Slavonic texts, as well as in older (19th century or earlier) Russian books. Recently, Russian stressed vowels are typically marked with acute accent instead of grave accent.
