Ѓ is used in Macedonian to represent the voiced palatal plosive /ɟ/.[1]

Ѓ is most commonly romanised using the Latin letter G with acute ⟨ǵ⟩. When the Socialist Republic of Macedonia was part of SFR Yugoslavia, the Macedonian ѓ (ǵ) was also transliterated as đ, ģ, gj, or dj.

Words with this letter are often cognate with Жд жд (Zhd zhd) in Bulgarian and Ђ ђ / Đ đ in Serbo-Croatian.[2] For example, the Macedonian word for birth (раѓање is raǵanje, which in Bulgarian is раждане - razhdane, and in Serbian рађање - rađanje).
