Dje, or Djerv (Ђ, ђ) is the sixth letter of the Serbian Cyrillic alphabet, used in the Serbian language to represent the sound /dʑ/, a voiced alveolo-palatal affricate, similar to the English "j" sound. It was adapted by Vuk Stefanović Karadžić from ћ.

The name Dje is actually a provisional designation, as Serbian letters are not named. When spelling is required, it is pronounced [dʑə].

Dje corresponds to Đ/đ in the Serbian Latin alphabet, and is transliterated thus, although it is sometimes transliterated as dj, many consider this to be incorrect. The letter was also used to write the Serbo-Croatian language prior to the dissolution of Yugoslavia. The Macedonian letter Gje (Ѓ) is considered a cognate to Dje.
