Hoe (letter)

Hoe (Asomtavruli: Ⴥ, Nuskhuri: ⴥ, Mkhedruli: ჵ, Mtavruli: Ჵ) is the 38th letter of the three Georgian scripts.

In the system of Georgian numerals it has a value of 10,000. Now obsolete in Georgian, due to it being redundant to the spelling of the exclamation "ჰოი!" ("Hoi!", meaning "Oh!"). It is still used in the alphabet for the Bats language, for the phonemes /ʕ, ɦ/.
