And the two parallel lines, according to the creators, were supposed to symbolize the stability of the Russian national currency.

Nowadays, everyone knows what the ruble designation looks like. You can see the symbol of this currency in the article. In it we will talk not only about its history of origin. We will also tell you about how to enter the ruble designation in the text entry field. of course not specified, but still there are ways to enter it. We'll cover all of them in this article.

The history of the symbol

Initially, of course, it is worth paying attention to the history of the appearance of the symbol. as a currency appeared in the distant thirteenth century. And almost immediately there was a need to reduce it. There were a lot of variations, but the first known version that became known to us was a combination of two letters - "p" and "y". One thing can be said for sure: this reduction appeared as a result of the evolution of the then writing in Russian. By the way, this abbreviation appeared in the 17th century and was used until the 19th.

In our time, another designation for the ruble is the symbol "₽". However, it is worth noting that this spelling option is relevant only for banknotes of Russian origin, and everyone knows that the ruble is used in three countries: Russia, Belarus and unrecognized Transnistria. It is different for each country.

  • in Belarus - "Br";
  • in Transnistria - "P" with a line that runs vertically.

But in the article we will only talk about the Russian ruble.

Insert from keyboard

So, we have already done the main thing, we have indicated the designation of the ruble. We know the symbol, and now it's time to tell you how to enter it from the keyboard. The first method that we will use appeared relatively recently, in 2013. But it is worth noting that Microsoft has not implemented this symbol in all of its OS, but only in the actual.

So, continuing to talk about the designation of the ruble, you will not find a symbol on the keyboard, as mentioned above. Here you will need to use the keyboard shortcut - Alt + 8.

Everything is quite simple, after pressing these two keys, a ruble symbol will be printed in the place where you placed the cursor. But it is worth making a note that Alt must be pressed with the right, not the left, and enter the eight on the top numeric keypad otherwise nothing will work.

Insert using symbol table

The above was presented the simplest way entering the ruble symbol. But for some reason it may not work (broken key or outdated Windows version). What if you urgently need to enter the ruble symbol? The symbol in the "Word" will help you with this. So, now let's look at a way to insert a ruble symbol into a document using the symbol table in the "Word".

This is done quite simply, the main thing for you is to initially open the table itself. To do this, go to the "Insert" tab. Now on the toolbar you need to find the "Symbol" button. Click on it, and in the drop-down menu select "Other Symbols". You can visually observe the whole process in the picture below.


Now you have the table you want. As you can see, there are an unimaginable number of characters; manually searching for the desired one will take a long time. In order to facilitate the search, you can select "Currency" in the "Set" drop-down list. After that, you will see different countries... Find the one you need and click the "Insert" button. Pay attention to the sign code, it will come in handy further.

Using hexadecimal code

Remember the code you needed to pay attention to? It is he who is the hexadecimal code of this character. Now let's look at how it should be used to enter the ruble symbol.

And there is practically nothing to do here, you just need to enter the code and press ALT + X. But for greater clarity, let's look at everything with an example.

Let's say you entered a number in the "Word" and want to put the ruble symbol at the end. For this:

  • put the cursor in the right place;
  • enter "20BD";
  • Press the keyboard shortcut ALT + X.


After that, the code will turn into the symbol we need. If you want to find out other symbol codes, then for this you can view them in the table with symbols, simply by highlighting the desired element. A set of four characters will be displayed in the "Character code" field, which is the hexadecimal code of the selected character.

Using the clipboard

Well, and the last method is generally for the lazy, although few people know about it. With the help, you can insert not only a printed symbol into the document, but also the very picture of this symbol. To do this, a picture or a symbol must be placed initially on the clipboard, that is, simply copied. When the desired object is in the buffer, make sure that you do not copy something else there, otherwise nothing will work.

After that, open the program or page where you will enter the character, paste the copied object using the CTRL + V combination or the context menu.


By the way, you can use this article to copy the material you want. Here is the symbol itself - "₽". By the way, in this way you can copy any symbol or image.
