Keh, or Kʼe (majuscule: Ք; minuscule: ք; Reformed orthography: քե; Classical orthography: քէ) is the thirty-sixth letter of the Armenian alphabet. It represents the voiceless aspirated velar plosive (/kʰ/) in both Eastern and Western varieties of Armenian. Created by Mesrop Mashtots in the 5th century, it has a numerical value of 9000. Its shape in lowercase form resembles to the Latin letter P (p), but stroked, and in cursive, the lowercase form resembles the letter ɬ (the voiceless alveolar lateral fricative).
