Note: This mora was historically pronounced as "po".

, in hiragana, or in katakana, is one of the Japanese kana, each of which represents one mora. Both are made in four strokes and both represent [ho]. In the Sakhalin dialect of the Ainu language, ホ can be written as small ㇹ to represent a final h sound after an o sound (オㇹ oh).
