I've noticed that ق is generally transliterated from farsi texts as "g". Is there any reference for that? --Soman (talk) 14:09, 2 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Qoph may be transliterated from Persian as "g", because in standard western Persian (Tehran dialect) Qoph is pronounced like غ "ghayn". Einstein92 (talk) 15:45, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Qoph in Gulf Arabic

It is true that sometimes Qoph is pronounced [dʒ] in Gulf Arabic, but that is not very frequent. As I know it Qoph is mostly pronounced [g] in Gulf Arabic. Einstein92 (talk) 15:45, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

The name of this page (and all references to this hebrew letter) should be changed, to "KOF"

The standard spelling of the name of this hebrew letter, in America, at at least (that is, for the majority of the readers of this english language wikipedia), is "KOF" -- not "qoph."

This page should not have have a jewish classification, if it has arabic content and spelling, for the name of this letter. The name of this page should be changed [and the arabic content removed], or the page should be reclassified under an arabic language portal -- with a separate, new page created, for the hebrew spelling of the name of this letter. For any American struggling to learn Hebrew, articles like these will confuse them, because this is wrong, according to what most of them are taught. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saywhat2012 (talk • contribs) 20:09, 9 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

There is no Qaf letter in Persian language and every word that has a Qaf letter comes from another language. Among these, many words borrowed from the Turkish language entered the neighboring Persian language:Akbarmohammadzade (talk) 09:28, 20 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

The statement "There is no Qaf letter in Persian and every word or word that has this letter comes from another language" I put forward this statement for the first time in the history of my etymology and word selection in 2011 AD or 1390 Hijri, the evidence is also available.

Alphabetic Ghaf Arabic and Turkish pronunciation instead qoph
