 Since the 1940s the Komi alphabet was simply changed to the Russian alphabet, albeit with the addition of "І, і" and "Ӧ, ӧ".Letters particular to the Molodtsov alphabet include ԁ, ԃ, ԅ, ԇ, ԉ, ԋ, ԍ, ԏ, where the hooks represent palatalization.In addition, the letters Ф ф, Х х, and Ц ц might be used for words borrowed from Russian.
