(g with turned comma above right; minuscule: ) is the 26th letter of the Uzbek Latin alphabet, representing the voiced uvular fricative /ʁ/, like the French r in "rouge". It was adopted in the May 1995 revision of the alphabet, replacing Ğ.[1] It was also used for the same sound in the Karakalpak alphabet until 2016, when it was replaced with Ǵ. It corresponds to Cyrillic Ғ.

Encodings

[edit]

In Unicode, Gʻ is not encoded as a precomposed character, but rather as a sequence of U+0047 G LATIN CAPITAL LETTER G or U+0067 g LATIN SMALL LETTER G and U+02BB ʻ MODIFIER LETTER TURNED COMMA. Since the modifier letter isn't readily typeable on the Uzbek Latin keyboard layouts shipped with Microsoft Windows as of 2022, the substitution of other characters such as U+0027 ' APOSTROPHE and U+2018 LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK is very common.[2]
