ፈ (fa)

The Ge'ez letter ፈ is called አፍ (ʾaf). It represents a “voiceless labiodental fricative ”, which is like <f> in the English words forest, forever, and first.
Its shape ፈ is derived from the epigraphic character: 𐩰. It correlates to the Arabic letter ف, the Syriac letter ܦ, and the Hebrew letter פ.
Ge’ez words starting with ፈ include ፍቅር (fəqr) "love", ፍኖት (fənot) "road" and ፍሬ (fəre) "fruit".
