Ge, ghe, or he (Г г; italics: Г г or Г г; italics: Г г) is a letter of the Cyrillic script. Most commonly, it represents the voiced velar plosive /ɡ/, like the ⟨g⟩ in "gift", or the voiced glottal fricative [ɦ], like the ⟨h⟩ in "heft". It is generally romanized using the Latin letter g or h, depending on the source language.
