Letter "Ħ"

Ħ (minuscule: ħ) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, derived from H with the addition of a bar. It is used in Maltese for a voiceless pharyngeal fricative consonant like the H in "Hello" (corresponding to the letter heth of Semitic abjads: Arabic: ح, Hebrew: ח). Lowercase ħ is used in the International Phonetic Alphabet for the same sound.

In Unicode, the special character ℏ (U+210F), represents the reduced Planck constant of quantum mechanics.[1] In this context, it is pronounced "h-bar".

The lowercase resembles the Cyrillic letter Tshe (ћ), or the astronomical symbol of Saturn (♄).

A white uppercase Ħ on a red square is the logo of Heritage Malta.

In physics, the lower case ħ is used as a symbol for the reduced Planck constant.

It is used as the symbol for Hedera Hashgraph's native cryptocurrency, HBAR.

Computer encoding

As a part of WGL-4, Ħ should be displayable on most computers.
