Palatalization mark

Not to be confused with the Cyrillic pokrytie or kamora.

The palatalization mark is one of the historic signs of Cyrillic that was used in Old Church Slavonic to indicate the palatalization of the base consonant. An example of use is in the word избавитєл҄ь ('redeemer', palatalized л [lʲ]).
