Ani (letter)

Ani, or An (Asomtavruli: Ⴀ; Nuskhuri: ⴀ; Mkhedruli: ა; Mtavruli: Ა; Georgian: ანი, ან) is the 1st letter of the three Georgian scripts. In the system of Georgian numerals, it has a value of 1. Ani represents the open central unrounded vowel /ä/, like the pronunciation of ⟨a⟩ in "father". It is typically romanized with the letter A. ა̈ with an umlaut, ა̄ with a macron and ა̄̈ with both an umlaut and macron are used to write Svan as part of the modern Mkhedruli alphabet.
