**Υ υ : [[Greek alphabet|Greek]] letter [[Upsilon]], from which {{vr|v}} derives

***Ѵ ѵ : Cyrillic letter [[izhitsa]], also descended from Upsilon
***У у : [[Cyrillic]] letter {{vr|[[U (Cyrillic)|u]]}}, also descended from Upsilon via the digraph of omicron and upsilon
**** Ү ү : [[Cyrillic]] letter {{vr|[[Ue (Cyrillic)|Ү]]}}, descended from {{vr|У}} and izhitsa, is used in the scripts for languages in the former [[Soviet Union]] and currently the [[Russia|Russian Federation]], as well as in [[Mongolian Cyrillic alphabet|Mongolian]].
