Fi (Mkhedruli: ჶ; Mtavruli: Ჶ;[1] Georgian: ჶი) is an additional letter of the Georgian script, now obsolete in Georgian. It was used in the 20th century in words which came from other languages such as: ჶილმი (ფილმი-film) etc. Since this letter is not part of the original Georgian alphabet, it has no numerical value. It is typically romanized with the letter f.[2] Today, the letter is used in the Laz language.[3]
