Ш̆ (minuscule : ш̆), called sha brève, is an additional letter of the Cyrillic script which was used for Abkhaz at the start of the 20th century. It is composed of a sha ⟨Ш⟩ with the diacritic breve.

  • the alphabet of Peter von Uslav 1862 ;
  • the alphabet of Gulia and Machavariani 1892 ;
  • the alphabet of Tchotchoua 1909.
