'''Komi De''' (Ԁ ԁ; italics: <span style="font-family: times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: larger">''Ԁ ԁ''</span>'')'' is a letter of the [[Molodtsov alphabet]], a version of [[Cyrillic script|Cyrillic]]. It was used only in the writing of the [[Komi language]] in the 1920s.<ref name="compart">{{cite web|url= https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+0500|title= Unicode Character "Ԁ" (U+0500)|work=Compart |publisher=Compart AG | place= Oak Brook, IL|date=2021 |accessdate=2024-02-29}}</ref>

The lowercase form resembles the lowercase of the [[D|Latin letter D]] (d&nbsp;<span style="font-family: times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: larger">''d''</span>) and its uppercase form resembles a rotated capital [[P|Latin letter P]] or [[Er (Cyrillic)|Cyrillic letter Er]] or a mirrored [[soft sign]].

Komi De represents the [[voiced dental plosive]] {{ipa|/d/}}, like the pronunciation of {{angbr|d}} in "'''d'''in". This sound is represented by the [[De (Cyrillic)|Cyrillic letter De]] (Д&nbsp;д) in other Cyrillic alphabets.
