He, Ei,[1][2] or E-merve[a] (Asomtavruli: ; Nuskhuri: ; Mkhedruli: ჱ; Mtavruli: Ჱ; Georgian: ეჲ, ეი,[2] ე-მერვე) is the 8th letter of the three Georgian scripts.[4] In the Georgian language, it represented the diphthong /j/. Currently, it is only used in the Svan language, where it is used for //.

In the system of Georgian numerals, it has a value of 8. It is now obsolete in the Georgian language, replaced by ეჲ (ei) due to its identical pronunciation.[5] It is typically romanized with the letter E with macron (Ē) or with the digraph Ey.[6]
