U+10EC "წ" Georgian Letter Cil Unicode Character

U+10EC "წ" Georgian Letter Cil is a character in the Georgian script, specifically part of the modern Georgian alphabet known as Mkhedruli, where it represents a strongly aspirated voiceless alveolar affricate sound, similar to the "ts" in "cats" but pronounced with greater force. This letter is used in the Georgian language to write words such as "წიგნი" (tsigni), meaning "book," and holds a significant place in Georgian orthography as one of the thirty-three letters of the standard alphabet. Historically, the Mkhedruli script, which includes "წ," emerged around the 11th century and remains the primary script for modern Georgian, distinct from the older liturgical scripts Asomtavruli and Nuskhuri.
