U+062C "ج" Arabic Letter Jeem Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+062C "ج" Arabic Letter Jeem is the fifth letter of the Arabic alphabet and represents a voiced palatal plosive sound, similar to the English "j" in "jump." It is a lunar letter, meaning it does not assimilate with the definite article "al-" in pronunciation, and its shape changes depending on its position in a word taking isolated, initial, medial, or final forms. In the Arabic abjad system, Jeem holds a numerical value of three and is widely used across languages that employ the Arabic script, including Persian and Urdu, where it may represent slightly different phonetic variations. The letter's name derives from the Semitic root for "camel" or "trunk," and its calligraphic form, like many Arabic letters, is often stylized in artistic and religious contexts.
