About this character

U+30AE (ギ) is KATAKANA LETTER GI, a letter in the Katakana block. It belongs to the Katakana script. It was added in Unicode 1.1 (1993).

It is precomposed. Under NFD it decomposes into U+30AD キ + U+3099 ◌゙, and NFC recombines that sequence into this single codepoint, so both spellings are canonically equivalent and should compare equal after normalization. See the normalization guide.

Its East Asian Width is Wide, so terminals and monospaced layouts give it two columns.
