Tshe (or '''') (Ћ ћ; italics: Ћ ћ'') is a letter of the Cyrillic script, used in the Serbian Cyrillic alphabet and Montenegrin Cyrillic alphabet, where it represents the voiceless alveolo-palatal affricate , somewhat like the pronunciation of in "chew"; however, it must not be confused with the letter Che (Ч ч), which represents the voiceless retroflex affricate and also exists in Serbian Cyrillic script. The sound of Tshe is produced from the voiceless alveolar plosive by iotation. Tshe is the 23rd letter in the Serbian alphabet and 25rd letter in the Montenegrin alphabet. It was first used by Dositej Obradović as a revival of the old Cyrillic letter Djerv (Ꙉ), and was later adopted in the 1818 Serbian dictionary of Vuk Stefanović Karadžić. The equivalent character to Tshe in Gaj's Latin alphabet is Ć.
