Template:Infobox Cyrillic letter

Ge with hook (ㄏ‚ ʃ , ) is an additional letter of the Cyrillic script which is used in the writing of the Ket and also sometimes in Nivkh. It is used in transcription of Eskaleut languages. It is composed of a ge ⟨Г⟩ with a hook.

Use

Ge with hook is used in the literature of the Nivkh languages to represent the voiced uvular plosive [ɢ],[1] and is sometimes represented instead with the ge with descender ⟨Ӷ ӷ⟩.[2] It is used, in particular, in the Sakhalin dialects and not in the Amur dialect.[3]

Forms and variants

Ge with hook has the hook attached to the right in Nivkh in Taksami 1996, as well as Eskaleut languages works such as Ainana 1994, and Vakhtin 2003, in the Chaplino dialect in Menovchtchikov 1988, Menovchtchikov and Vakhtin 1990, Sigunylik 2003, in Naukan Yupik in Menovchtchikov 1975.

Computing codes

This letter has yet been encoded in Unicode. In theory, it is possible to use the letter ge with descender ⟨Ӷ, ӷ⟩ with fonts or adapted applications in which these have the form of this letter.
