This practice still is common, because the palochka is not present in most standard keyboard layouts ( and for some of them not even the soft-dotted I ) or common fonts, and so cannot be easily entered or reliably displayed on many computer systems.

In the alphabets of the Caucasian languages Abaza, Adyghe, Avar, Chechen, Dargwa, Ingush, Kabardian, Lak, Lezgian and Tabassaran, the palochka has no independent phonetic value, but signals that the preceding consonant is an ejective.

( An exception is the Abkhaz language, which does not use palochka for rendering ejectives.

The capital form of the palochka often looks like the capital form of the Cyrillic letter soft-dotted I ( І і ), the capital form of the Latin letter I ( I i ), and the lowercase form of the Latin letter L ( L l ).

The palochka was the only exception, and in practice while typewriting the Arabo-European digit 1 was used instead.

In Chechen, the palochka also represents the voiced pharyngeal fricative.
