U+0403 "Ѓ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Gje Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
Ѓ
U+0403 "Ѓ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Gje is a letter used primarily in the Macedonian Cyrillic alphabet, where it represents the voiced palato-alveolar affricate sound /d͡ʒ/, similar to the "j" in English "judge." It is derived from the Cyrillic letter Ge (Г) by adding an acute accent, which distinguishes it from the similar but different sound of the Serbian letter Ђ. In lowercase, it is represented as "ѓ" (U+0453). While most common in Macedonian, it also appears in some other languages using Cyrillic script, though its usage is limited outside of its primary context.
