G-circumflex

"Ĝ", or "ĝ", is a consonant and letter in the Esperanto alphabet. Since each letter in Esperanto has a consistent sound, this letter is always pronounced the same; its sound is represented by [dZ] in SAMPA.

The letter is also used in Unangam Tunuu (see Aleut language), where it represents a voiced uvular fricative. The corresponding voiceless sound is represented by x̂.
