Zhwe (Ꚅ ꚅ; italics:
Ꚅ ꚅ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script. The shape of the letter originated as a ligature of the Cyrillic letters Ze (З з; З з) and Zhe (Ж ж; Ж ж).Zhwe was used in the Abkhaz language where it represented the labialized voiced palato-alveolar sibilant pronounced as //ʒʷ//. This was replaced by the digraph Жә.
