The letterform of this letter is based on the letterform of the letter ⟨Г г⟩, but its handwritten and italic lowercase forms do not follow the italic modification of ⟨г⟩: г.

It represents the voiced velar plosive /ɡ/, like the pronunciation of ⟨g⟩ in "go".

The letter ⟨ґ⟩ is usually romanized using the Latin letter g, or sometimes ġ with a dot or g̀ with a grave accent.

In the Unicode system for text encoding, the characters representing this letter are called CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER GHE WITH UPTURN (code point U+0490) and CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER GHE WITH UPTURN (U+0491), while the unmodified characters representing the letter ⟨г⟩ are called CYRILLIC CAPITAL and SMALL LETTER GHE (U+0413 and U+0433).
