U+182D "ᠭ" Mongolian Letter Ga Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᠭ
U+182D "ᠭ" Mongolian Letter Ga is a glyph used in the traditional Mongolian script to represent the voiced velar plosive sound /ɡ/, similar to the English "g" in "go". It is part of the Mongolian block in Unicode, which was designed to support the vertical writing system of the Mongolian language, used primarily in Inner Mongolia, China, and historically across the Mongol Empire. This specific character, known as "Ga," appears in the middle or initial position of words and is one of several consonants that can be combined with vowel marks to form syllables. Its shape, with a distinctive curved stroke terminating in a short tail, reflects the flowing, calligraphic style of the traditional script.
