Twe (Ꚍ ꚍ; italics: Ꚍ ꚍ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script. Its glyph is derived from a lowercase Greek Tau. [1]
Twe was used in old Abkhaz and in old Ossetian.
In Abkhaz, it represents the labialized voiceless alveolar plosive /tʷ/, like the pronunciation of ⟨tw⟩ in "twin".[ citation needed] It corresponds to the digraph Тә.[ clarification needed]
