Khakassian Che (Ӌ ӌ; italics: Ӌ ӌ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script.[1] Its form is derived from the Cyrillic letter che (Ч ч Ч ч).

It is used in the alphabet of the Khakas language,[1] as its name suggests, and represents the voiced postalveolar affricate /d͡ʒ/; similar to the pronunciation of ⟨j⟩ in "jump". Khakassian che corresponds in other Cyrillic alphabets to the digraphs ⟨дж⟩ or ⟨чж⟩, or to the letters che with descender (Ҷ ҷ), che with vertical stroke (Ҹ ҹ), dzhe (Џ џ), zhe with breve (Ӂ ӂ), zhe with diaeresis (Ӝ ӝ), or zhe with descender (Җ җ).

It is also used in the Soyot language.[2]
