(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. 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.
