Gaf

Gaf (Persian: گاف; gāf), is the name of different Perso-Arabic letters, all representing /ɡ/. They are all derived from the letter kāf, with additional diacritics, such as dots and lines. It is also one of the four letters the Persian alphabet added from the twenty-eight inherited from the Arabic alphabet (the others being pe, che, and že). In name and shape, it is a variant of kaf. Its numerical value is 5000 (see Abjad numerals). There are four forms, each used in different alphabets:

• گ‎ in the Persian alphabet, Tausug written in Arabic Script
• ݢ‎ in the Jawi script
• ࢴ/ڮ‎ in the Pegon script
• ګ‎ in Pashto
• ڭـ/‎ڭ‎‎‎‎ in Moroccan Arabic
