Kje (or Tje) (Ќ, ќ) is a letter of the Cyrillic alphabet, used in the Macedonian language. It represents a voiceless palatal plosive /c/, or a voiceless alveolo-palatal affricate /tɕ/. It is transliterated using ‹ḱ› (vreḱa) or sometimes <kj>. Words with this sound are most often cognates to those in Serbian with ‹ћ›/‹ć› and in Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrin with ‹ć›. For example, Macedonian шеќер (Šeḱer, 'sugar') corresponds to Serbian шећер/šećer and Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrin šećer.
