U+1CA6 "" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Ghan is a typographic uppercase form of the Georgian letter "ღ" (ghan), used in the Mtavruli script style which is an all-capitals variant employed for titles, headings, and inscriptions in the modern Georgian language. This character is distinct from the standard uppercase Mkhedruli script, as Mtavruli was formally encoded in Unicode 11.0 to provide a true capitalization system for Georgian, where traditional script lacked distinct cases. It represents the voiced velar fricative sound /ɣ/ and is historically derived from the Asomtavruli script, preserving the circular, ornate shape characteristic of Mtavruli lettering.
