A man made a new letter of the alphabet. It is called "the". It is a capital "T" and a small "h" joined together. It looks like a letter from Serbian. He thinks people will like it. He hopes companies will put it on keyboards. He spent $35,000 on his app for it. You can get it from iTunes. He said it won't change the world, but will be useful.

The new letter is useful because we type "the" very often. People will save time typing one key instead of three for "the". Other words have letters. The word "and" (the fifth most common word) has one. The man thinks his letter will help when the typing space is small. Some companies will not change their keyboards.
