U+03E8 "Ϩ" Coptic Capital Letter Hori Unicode Character

U+03E8 "Ϩ" Coptic Capital Letter Hori is a glyph used in the Coptic alphabet, where it represents a voiced glottal or pharyngeal fricative sound, typically transliterated as "h" or "ḥ." This letter is historically derived from the Demotic script and corresponds to the Greek letter Heta, though it holds a distinct position in the Coptic writing system. It forms part of the Coptic block in Unicode, which was introduced to support the liturgical and scholarly use of the Coptic language, primarily within the context of the Egyptian Christian tradition. The shape of the capital Hori resembles an angular, open form that differs notably from its minuscule counterpart, and it is occasionally used in modern digital texts for historical or religious documentation.
