Kje (or Tje) (Ќ ќ; italics: Ќ ќ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script, used only in the Macedonian alphabet, where it represents the voiceless palatal plosive /c/, or the voiceless alveolo-palatal affricate /tɕ/. Kje is the 24th letter In this alphabet. It is romanized as or sometimes kj.

Words with this sound are most often cognates to those in Serbian with ћ/ć, in Bulgarian with щ, т or к and in Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrin with ć. For example, Macedonian ноќ (noḱ, night) corresponds to Serbian ноћ/noć, Bulgarian нощ and Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrin noć.
