U+1CBE "Ჾ" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Hard Sign is a rarely used letter within the Georgian Mkhedruli script's uppercase or titlecase variant, known as Mtavruli. It represents a capital version of the hard sign, a character that typically indicates a slight pause or hardening of the preceding consonant, similar in function to the hard sign in Cyrillic. This character is part of the Unicode block for Georgian Extended and was added to support the modern digitization of historical or stylized Georgian texts where capitalization of this specific sign is required, though it is not commonly found in standard modern Georgian writing.
