U+04FC "Ӽ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Ha with Hook is a variant of the Cyrillic letter Ha (Х) which has been modified with a hook attached to its right side, and it is used in the writing systems of several minority languages of Russia, including the Khanty and Nenets languages, where it typically represents a voiceless uvular fricative sound (like a raspy "kh") or a similar back consonant not found in standard Russian. This letter is part of the Extended Cyrillic block and is the uppercase form of the corresponding lowercase character U+04FD "ӽ", helping to accurately transcribe the phonetic distinctions essential to these indigenous languages.
