Final form

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In many languages, the final form is a special character used to represent a letter only when it occurs at the end of a word. For example, in Hebrew:

kaf כ, mem מ, nun נ, pe פ, and tsadi צ 

have the final forms

kaf ך, mem ם, nun ן, pe ף, and tsadi ץ 

Some languages that use final form characters are:

• Arabic
• Hebrew
• Manchu
