Palochka
The palochka or palotchka is a letter of the Cyrillic script. This letter usually most often has only a capital form, which is also used in lowercase text. The capital form of the palochka often looks like the capital form of the Cyrillic letter soft-dotted I, the capital form of the Latin letter I, and the lowercase form of the Latin letter L. The letter was introduced during the cyrillization of the North-Caucasian languages in the late 1930s. In order to keep new orthography compatible with Russian typewriters many new alphabets did not contain any letters distinct from the ones of the Russian alphabet. The palochka was the only exception, and in practice while typewriting the Arabo-European digit 1 was used instead. In fact, on Russian typewriters this character did not look like digit 1, but rather as a Roman numeral I with serifs. This practice still is common, because the palochka is not present in most standard keyboard layouts or common fonts, and so cannot be easily entered or reliably displayed on many computer systems.
