Modern playing cards carry index labels on opposite corners or in all four corners to facilitate identifying the cards when they overlap and so that they appear identical for players on opposite sides. For the court cards, this comprises the initial letter or letters from the name of that card. In English countries they are lettered A, K, Q and J for Ace, King, Queen and Jack. In other countries the letters may vary. Germany uses A, K, D and B ("As", "König", "Dame" and "Bube"); Russia uses T, K, D and B ("Tuz", "Korol", "Dama" and "Valet"); Sweden uses E, K, D and Kn ("Ess", "Kung", "Dam" and "Knekt") and France uses 1, R, D, V (1, "Roi", "Dame", and "Valet").
