U+10C2 "Ⴢ" Georgian Capital Letter Hie Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
Ⴢ
U+10C2 "Ⴢ" Georgian Capital Letter Hie is a letter used in the Georgian script, specifically representing the capital form of the letter "hie" in the Khutsuri ecclesiastical alphabet. It is part of the Unicode block "Georgian Supplement," which contains uppercase variants of letters traditionally used in liturgical texts, as the standard Georgian Mkhedruli script does not have a case distinction. This character corresponds to the sound of a voiceless glottal fricative, similar to the English "h," and is primarily found in historical or religious writings rather than in modern everyday Georgian usage.
