U+1CAD "Ჭ" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Char Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
Ჭ
U+1CAD "Ჭ" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Char is a typographic form used to represent the Georgian letter "Char" in its uppercase or capital variant, specifically within the Mtavruli script style. Part of the Unicode block for Georgian Extended, this character is a modern, stylized capital version of the Mkhedruli script, designed for use in titles, headings, or decorative contexts where a uniform, monumental appearance is desired. Unlike the historic Asomtavruli or Nuskhuri scripts, Mtavruli forms like this one are not a distinct alphabet but rather a case-sensitive adaptation of the standard Georgian script, with this particular character corresponding to the phonetic sound /tʃʰ/ similar to the "ch" in "church".
