U+30B4 "" Katakana Letter Go is a character in the Japanese katakana script representing the voiced syllable "go", derived from the base katakana character "コ" (ko) with the addition of a dakuten diacritic (two small strokes) to indicate the voiced g sound. It is part of the Katakana block within the Unicode standard, positioned at code point U+30B4, and is used in modern Japanese writing primarily for transcribing foreign loanwords, onomatopoeia, and names, such as in the word "ゴルフ" (gorufu, meaning golf). This character follows the typical katakana structure of being angular and straightforward, contrasting with the more curvy hiragana, and serves as a key component in the written representation of the Japanese language.
