Appearance
(Redirected from Ⴖ)
Ghani (asomtavruli Ⴖ, nuskhuri ⴖ, mkhedruli ღ, mtavruli Ღ) is the 26th letter of the three Georgian scripts.[1]
In the system of Georgian numerals it has a value of 700.[2]
In the Georgian language, Ghani’s phonemic realisation can be classified as a voiced velar fricative /ɣ/, although it is argued that it can also be a voiced uvular fricative /ʁ/, depending on the context it appears in.
