Eni (letter)

Eni, or En (Asomtavruli: Ⴄ; Nuskhuri: ⴄ; Mkhedruli: ე; Mtavruli: Ე; Georgian: ენი, ენ) is the 5th letter of the three Georgian scripts. In the system of Georgian numerals, it has a value of 5. Eni commonly represents the mid front unrounded vowel /e̞/, like between the pronunciation of ⟨e⟩ in "embassy" and the pronunciation of ⟨e⟩ in "bed" (General Australian). It is typically romanized with the letter E. An additional mkhedruli eni letter, ე̄ with a macron is used in Svan language.
