Meaning & usage
The ninth letter of the Turkish alphabet, called yumuşak ge and written in the Latin script.
Where this word comes from
The breve is used to indicate an elided ‹g›. This origin of the sound is evident in the archaic pronunciation [ɣ] as well as in alternations like çocuk → çocuğu (vis-à-vis galip, umut → galibi, umudu). Moreover, in Arabic and Persian borrowings the letter غ (ḡ) is equivalent to Turkish ‹ğ› word-internally, but to ‹g› word-initially (as ‹ğ› cannot be initial).
