Source: Browser Default
U+049A "Қ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Ka with Descender is a modified letter used in several non-Slavic languages that employ the Cyrillic script, including Kazakh, Uzbek, and Tajik. It represents a voiceless uvular plosive sound, similar to a hard "k" pronounced further back in the throat, and is formed by adding a descender or hook to the bottom of the standard Cyrillic letter Ka. This character distinguishes specific phonetic sounds that are essential for correctly writing and reading these languages, setting them apart from Russian and other Slavic Cyrillic alphabets.
