Letter "Ħ"

Perez de Ayala's (1556) version of Lord Prayer in Spanish and Andalusian Arabic, page 18. Compare to Maltese:
ħobżna ta' kuljum agħtihulna llum.

Ħ (minuscule: ħ) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, derived from H with the addition of a bar. It is used in Maltese for a voiceless pharyngeal fricative consonant (corresponding to the letter heth of Semitic abjads: Template:Langx, Template:Langx). Lowercase Script error: No such module "IPA". is used in the International Phonetic Alphabet for the same sound.

The lowercase resembles the Cyrillic letter Tshe (ћ), or the astronomical symbol of Saturn (♄), later used in the alchemical symbol representing lead.

A white uppercase Ħ on a red square was the logo of Heritage Malta until 2022.[1]

It is used as the symbol for Hedera Hashgraph's native cryptocurrency, HBAR.[2]

History

An early use of this letter is found in the 1556 work of Pérez de Ayala, slightly modified from Pedro de Alcalá's Vocabulary.[3]
