In the Mongolian Unicode block, ɣ/g comes after q/k and before m.
May turn silent between vowels, and merge these into a long vowel or diphthong.^[2]^: 36–37 For more details on this, see Mongolian script multigraphs.

ɣ

Transcribes Chakhar /ɣ/;^[13] Khalkha /ɢ/, and /∅/.^[14]^: 40–42 Transliterated into Cyrillic with the letter г.^[10]^[5]
Dotted before a vowel (attached or separated); undotted before a consonant (syllable-final) or a whitespace.^[2]^: 21^[3]^: 546^[15]^: 5^[13]
Derived from Old Uyghur merged gimel and heth (𐽲).^[3]^{: 539–540, 545–546}^[16]^{: 111, 113–115}^[8]^: 35

g

The final form is also found written like the bow-shaped Manchu final ‍ᡴ᠋ k.^[8]^: 39

Notes

^ Scholarly transliteration, with alternative in parentheses.^[5]
^ ^a ^b For the two harmonic variants of the particle ᠰᠢᠭ᠋^⟨?⟩/ᠰᠢᠭ^⟨?⟩ siɣ/sig (шиг shig) 'similar to, similarly, like' etc., the choice between final ɣ or g is dependent on whether it occurs after a masculine or a feminine word, respectively.^[7]^: 699^[8]^: 44^[9]^: 201
^ As in ᠬᠡ/ᠬᠡᠭᠡ/ᠬᠡᠭᠡᠨ ke/kege/kegen (хээ khee) 'pattern, piping, design, stamp'.^[7]^{: 438, 442}
^ See the separated  ᠬᠢ ‑ki suffix.^[7]
