Гг
The letter “гэ”
/g/
Г г sounds like g, as in "go" (always hard, never soft).
Where is Г on the keyboard?
On Russian Phonetic, г is on the key QWERTY prints as "g", left index finger. On ЙЦУКЕН it is on the key QWERTY prints as "u", right index finger. Two different physical keys for one letter, which is why moving between the two layouts is its own skill rather than a detail.
