Yu or Ju (Юю; italics: Юю) is a letter of the Cyrillic script used in East Slavic and Bulgarian alphabets. In English, Yu is an commonly romanized as yu (or ju). In turn, ю is used, where it is available in transcriptions of English letter u (in open syllables), and also of the ew digraph. The sound [y], like u in French and ü in German, may also be approximated by the letter ю.
