U+04BE "Ҿ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Abkhasian Che with Descender Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+04BE "Ҿ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Abkhasian Che with Descender is a specialized letter used in the Cyrillic alphabet for the Abkhaz language, where it represents a voiceless uvular ejective or a similar glottalized sound distinct from the standard Cyrillic "Ч". The character is formed by taking the standard Cyrillic letter Che (Ч) and adding a descender, a small tail that extends below the baseline, which modifies its phonetic value. It is part of the Unicode block Cyrillic Extended, designed to accommodate additional letters required for minority languages and historical orthographies within the Cyrillic script system. This letter is one of several variants used to precisely transcribe the complex consonant inventory of Abkhaz, and its inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital text processing can accurately represent this indigenous language of the Caucasus region.
