Kaph (also spelled kaf) is the eleventh letter of the Semitic abjads, including Phoenician kāp 𐤊, Hebrew kāp̄ כ, Aramaic kāp 𐡊, Syriac kāp̄ ܟ, and Arabic kāf ك (in abjadi order). It is also related to the Ancient North Arabian 𐪋, South Arabian 𐩫, and Ge'ez ከ.
The Phoenician letter gave rise to the Greek kappa (Κ), Latin K, and Cyrillic К.
