ڭ is an additional letter of the Arabic alphabet, derived from kāf (ك) with the addition of three dots above the letter. It is not used in Arabic itself, but may be used to represent a velar nasal (IPA: /ŋ/) when writing other languages.

Its initial and medial forms are identical to ݣ, which represents /ɡ/ in some languages. However, their final and isolated forms are different.
