Ꞡ

Not to be confused with the letter Ǥ / ǥ (G with stroke), which uses a flat bar.

Ꞡ (lowercase ꞡ) is a letter derived from the Latin alphabet letter G, combined with an oblique bar diacritic. It was used in Latvian orthography before 1921.^[1] Karl Faulmann reported in 1880 that the character was used to indicate a "g lind" (i.e., a soft g, the voiced post-alveolar affricate [d͡ʒ]), as opposed to the "hard g" that was denoted by a regular g character.^[2]
