I with macron (Ӣ ӣ; italics: Ӣ ū) is a letter of the Cyrillic script. In Tajik, it represents a stressed close front unrounded vowel /i/ at the end of a word. In Kildin Sami on the Kola Peninsula and Mansi in western Siberia, it represents long /iː/. In those languages, vowel length is distinctive, and the macron marks the long version of vowels.

I with macron is also used in Aleut (Bering dialect). It is the sixteenth letter of the modern Aleut alphabet. It looks similar to the Short I (Й й Й й) and often written identically in some cursive scripts.

I with macron also appears in the Bulgarian and Serbian languages.
