Sha , She or Shu , alternatively transliterated Ša (Ш ш; italics: Ш ш ) is a letter of the Glagolitic and Cyrillic scripts. It commonly represents the voiceless postalveolar fricative /ʃ/ , like the pronunciation of sh in " sh ip". More precisely, the sound in Russian denoted by ш is commonly transcribed as a palatoalveolar fricative but is actually a voiceless retroflex fricative /ʂ/ . It is used in every variation of the Cyrillic alphabet for Slavic and non-Slavic languages.
