Noun[edit]

  1. Pre-1918 spelling of звезда́ (zvezdá).

Usage notes[edit]

  • звѣзда́ (zvězdá) is one of the few Russian terms in pre-1918 orthography in which a stressed ѣ () is pronounced like the letter ё (jo). It is therefore written with a diaeresis in a similar fashion: ѣ̈ (). Note that this only occurs in certain inflections.
