'''Kje''' (Ќ&nbsp;ќ or Ḱ ḱ; italics: <span style="font-family: times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: larger">''Ќ&nbsp;ќ'' or ''Ḱ ḱ''</span>) is a letter of the [[Cyrillic script]], used only in the [[Macedonian language|Macedonian]] alphabet, where it represents the [[voiceless palatal plosive]] {{IPA|/c/}}, or the [[voiceless alveolo-palatal affricate]] {{IPA|/tɕ/}}.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Corbett |first1=Professor Greville |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=euI4CQAAQBAJ |title=The Slavonic Languages |last2=Comrie |first2=Professor Bernard |date=September 2003 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-1-136-86137-6 |language=en}}</ref> Kje is the 24th letter in this alphabet. It is romanised as {{angbr|ḱ}} or sometimes {{angbr|ķ}} or {{angbr|kj}}.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Campbell |first1=George L. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6lQwRD2Cb8EC |title=The Routledge Handbook of Scripts and Alphabets |last2=Moseley |first2=Christopher |date=2013-05-07 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-1-135-22296-3 |language=en}}</ref><br />

Words with this sound are most often cognates to those in [[Serbo-Croatian]] with {{angbr|[[ћ]]}}/{{angbr|[[ć]]}} and in [[Bulgarian language|Bulgarian]] with {{angbr|[[щ]]}}, {{angbr|[[т]]}} or {{angbr|[[к]]}}. For example, Macedonian ноќ (''noḱ'', night) corresponds to Serbo-Croatian ноћ/''noć'', and Bulgarian нощ (''nosht''). The common surname ending ''-ić'' is spelled -иќ in Macedonian.<br />
