Dzzhe (Ԫ ԫ; italics: Ԫ ԫ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script. The shape of the letter originated as a ligature of the Cyrillic letters De (Д д Д д) and Zhe (Ж ж Ж ж).

Dzzhe is used in the old Komi and Ossetic languages. It was later abandoned, possibly due to its looking too much like "дк".

It is used to distinguish the affricate /d͜ʒ/ from the sequence d-ž in some phonetic dictionaries.^[1]

Usage[]

This letter represents the voiced palato-alveolar affricate /d͡ʒ/. It can be romanized as ⟨dž⟩.
