==Historic Pha==
There are three different general early historic scripts - [[Brahmi script|Brahmi]] and its variants, [[Kharosthi|Kharoṣṭhī]], and [[Tocharian alphabet|Tocharian]], the so-called ''slanting Brahmi''. Pha as found in standard [[Brahmi]], [[Image:Brahmi ph.svg|13px|Pha]] was a simple geometric shape, with variations toward more flowing forms by the Gupta [[Image:Gupta allahabad ph.svg|13px|Pha]]. The Tocharian Pha [[Image:Tocharian letter pha.gif|18px|Pha]] did not have an alterante [[Tocharian alphabet#Script|Fremdzeichen]] form. The third form of pha, in Kharoshthi ([[file:Буква PHА (незалежний знак). Письмо кхароштхі. Kharoshthi letter PHA.svg|15px|Pha]]) was probably derived from Aramaic separately from the Brahmi letter.

===Brahmi Pha===

The Brahmi letter [[Image:Brahmi ph.svg|13px|Pha]], Pha, is [[Brahmi script#origin|probably derived]] from the altered Aramaic [[Pe (Semitic letter)|Pe]] [[File:Pe0.svg|13px]], and is thus related to the modern Latin [[P]] and Greek [[Pi (letter)|Pi]].<ref name="Buhler">{{cite web |last1=Bühler |first1=Georg |title=On the Origin of the Indian Brahmi Alphabet |url=https://archive.org/details/onoriginofindian00bhuoft/page/n3/mode/2up |website=archive.org |publisher=Karl J. Trübner |access-date=10 June 2020}}</ref> Several identifiable styles of writing the Brahmi Pha can be found, most associated with a specific set of inscriptions from an artifact or diverse records from an historic period.<ref>[[:File:Brahmi script consonants according to James Prinsep March 1838.jpg|Evolutionary chart]], Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal Vol 7, 1838 [https://archive.org/stream/journalofasiatic775asia#page/n101]</ref> As the earliest and most geometric style of Brahmi, the letters found on the [[Edicts of Ashoka]] and other records from around that time are normally the reference form for Brahmi letters, with vowel marks not attested until later forms of Brahmi back-formed to match the geometric writing style.

==Devanagari Pha==

{{main|Devanagari pha}}
{{Devanagari abugida sidebar}}
'''Pha''' ('''फ''') is a consonant of the [[Devanagari]] [[abugida]]. It ultimately arose from the [[Brahmi]] letter [[Image:Brahmi ph.svg|13px|ka]], after having gone through the [[Gupta script|Gupta]] letter [[File:Gupta allahabad ph.svg|13px]]. Letters that derive from it are the [[Gujarati script|Gujarati]] letter '''ફ''', and the [[Modi alphabet|Modi]] letter 𑘣.

===Devanagari-using Languages===
In all languages, फ is pronounced as {{IPA-hi|pʰə|}} or {{IPAblink|pʰ}} when appropriate. Like all Indic scripts, Devanagari uses vowel marks attached to the base consonant to override the inherent /ə/ vowel:

===Conjuncts with फ===
[[File:Devanagari Pha half form.svg|thumb|right|100px|Half form of Pha.]]
Devanagari exhibits conjunct ligatures, as is common in Indic scripts. In modern Devanagari texts, most conjuncts are formed by reducing the letter shape to fit tightly to the following letter, sometimes referred to as a "half form". Most Devanagari letters drop a character's vertical stem to create a half form, but due to its large tail to the right of the stem, the common half form of फ has its tail reduced to attach to the following letter. Some conjunct clusters are always represented by a true ligature, instead of a shape that can be broken into constituent independent letters. Vertically stacked conjuncts are ubiquitous in older texts, while only a few are still used routinely in modern Devanagari texts. The use of ligatures and vertical conjuncts may vary across languages using the Devanagari script, with [[Marathi language|Marathi]] in particular preferring the use of half forms where texts in other languages would show ligatures and vertical stacks.<ref name="KNAB">{{cite web |last1=Pall |first1=Peeter |title=Microsoft Word - kblhi2 |url=https://www.eki.ee/knab/lat/kblhi2.pdf |website=Eesti Keele Instituudi kohanimeandmed |publisher=Eesti Keele Instituudi kohanimeandmed |access-date=19 June 2020}}</ref>

====Ligature conjuncts of फ====
True ligatures are quite rare in Indic scripts. The most common ligated conjuncts in Devanagari are in the form of a slight mutation to fit in context or as a consistent variant form appended to the adjacent characters. Those variants include [[Na (Indic)#Devanagari Na|Na]] and the [[Ra (Indic)#Devanagari Repha|Repha]] and [[Ra (Indic)#Devanagari Rakar|Rakar]] forms of Ra. [[Nepali language|Nepali]] and [[Marathi language|Marathi]] texts use the "eyelash" Ra half form [[Image:Devanagari Eyelash Ra.svg|15px|Ra]] for an initial "R" instead of repha.

====Stacked conjuncts of फ====
Vertically stacked ligatures are the most common conjunct forms found in Devanagari text. Although the constituent characters may need to be stretched and moved slightly in order to stack neatly, stacked conjuncts can be broken down into recognizable base letters, or a letter and an otherwise standard ligature.

==Bengali Pha==

The Bengali script ফ is derived from the [[Siddhaṃ]] [[Image:Siddham ph.svg|13px]], and is marked by a similar horizontal head line, but less geometric shape, than its Devanagari counterpart, फ. The inherent vowel of Bengali consonant letters is /ɔ/, so the bare letter ফ will sometimes be transliterated as "pho" instead of "pha". Adding okar, the "o" vowel mark, gives a reading of /pʰo/.

Like all Indic consonants, ফ can be modified by marks to indicate another (or no) vowel than its inherent "a".

==Gujarati Pha==

[[File:Gujarati letter Pha.svg|thumb|right|100px|Gujarati Pha.]]
'''Pha''' ('''ફ''') is the twenty-second consonant of the [[Gujarati script|Gujarati]] [[abugida]]. It is derived from the Devanagari Pha [[Image:Devanagari ph.svg|13px|Pha]] with the top bar (shiro rekha) removed, and ultimately the [[Brahmi]] letter [[Image:Brahmi ph.svg|13px|Pha]]. ફ (Pha) is similar in appearance to ક ([[Ka (Indic)#Gujarati Ka|Ka]]), and care should be taken to avoid confusing the two when reading Gujarati script texts.

===Gujarati-using Languages===
The Gujarati script is used to write the [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]] and [[Kutchi language|Kutchi]] languages. In both languages, ફ is pronounced as {{IPA-gu|pʰə|}} or {{IPAblink|pʰ}} when appropriate. Like all Indic scripts, Gujarati uses vowel marks attached to the base consonant to override the inherent /ə/ vowel:

===Conjuncts with ફ===
Gujarati ફ exhibits conjunct ligatures, much like its parent Devanagari Script. While most Gujarati conjuncts can only be formed by reducing the letter shape to create a "half form" that fits tightly to following letter, Pha does not have a half form. A few conjunct clusters can be represented by a true ligature, instead of a shape that can be broken into constituent independent letters, and vertically stacked conjuncts can also be found in Gujarati, although much less commonly than in Devanagari. Lacking a half form, Pha will normally use an explicit virama when forming conjuncts without a true ligature.

True ligatures are quite rare in Indic scripts. The most common ligated conjuncts in Gujarati are in the form of a slight mutation to fit in context or as a consistent variant form appended to the adjacent characters. Those variants include [[Na (Indic)#Gujarati Na|Na]] and the [[Ra (Indic)#Gujarati Repha|Repha]] and [[Ra (Indic)#Gujarati Rakar|Rakar]] forms of Ra.

'''Pha''' ('''ఫ''') is a consonant of the [[Telugu script|Telugu]] [[abugida]]. It ultimately arose from the [[Brahmi]] letter [[Image:Brahmi ph.svg|13px|Ph]]. It is closely related to the [[Kannada script|Kannada]] letter '''ಫ'''. Most Telugu consonants contain a v-shaped headstroke that is related to the horizontal headline found in other Indic scripts, although headstrokes do not connect adjacent letters in Telugu. The headstroke is normally lost when adding vowel matras.

Telugu conjuncts are created by reducing trailing letters to a subjoined form that appears below the initial consonant of the conjunct. Many subjoined forms are created by dropping their headline, with many extending the end of the stroke of the main letter body to form an extended tail reaching up to the right of the preceding consonant. This subjoining of trailing letters to create conjuncts is in contrast to the leading half forms of Devanagari and Bengali letters. Ligature conjuncts are not a feature in Telugu, with the only non-standard construction being an alternate subjoined form of [[Ṣa (Indic)#Telugu Ṣa|Ṣa]] (borrowed from [[Kannada script|Kannada]]) in the KṢa conjunct.

==Malayalam Pha==
[[File:Malayalam letter Pha.svg|thumb|100px|Malayalam letter Pha]]

'''Pha''' ('''ഫ''') is a consonant of the [[Malayalam script|Malayalam]] [[abugida]]. It ultimately arose from the [[Brahmi]] letter [[Image:Brahmi ph.svg|13px|Ph]], via the [[Grantha script|Grantha]] letter [[Image:Grantha letter Pha.svg|x15px|Pha]] ''Pha''. Like in other Indic scripts, Malayalam consonants have the inherent vowel "a", and take one of several modifying vowel signs to represent syllables with another vowel or no vowel at all.

[[File:Malayalam Pha matras.svg|thumb|center|550px|Malayalam Pha matras: Pha, Phā, Phi, Phī, Phu, Phū, Phr̥, Phr̥̄, Phl̥, Phl̥̄, Phe, Phē, Phai, Pho, Phō, Phau, and Ph.]]

===Conjuncts of ഫ===
As is common in Indic scripts, Malayalam joins letters together to form conjunct consonant clusters. There are several ways in which conjuncts are formed in Malayalam texts: using a post-base form of a trailing consonant placed under the initial consonant of a conjunct, a combined ligature of two or more consonants joined together, a conjoining form that appears as a combining mark on the rest of the conjunct, the use of an explicit [[candrakkala]] mark to suppress the inherent "a" vowel, or a special consonant form called a "chillu" letter, representing a bare consonant without the inherent "a" vowel. Texts written with the modern reformed Malayalam orthography, ''put̪iya lipi'', may favor more regular conjunct forms than older texts in ''paḻaya lipi'', due to [[Malayalam#Orthography reform|changes]] undertaken in the 1970s by the [[Government of Kerala]].

* പ് (p) + ഫ (pʰa) gives the ligature ppʰa:

'''Pha''' ('''ଫ''') is a consonant of the [[Odia script|Odia]] [[abugida]]. It ultimately arose from the [[Brahmi]] letter [[Image:Brahmi ph.svg|13px|Ph]], via the [[Siddhaṃ script|Siddhaṃ]] letter [[Image:Siddham ph.svg|x15px|Pha]] ''Pha''. Like in other Indic scripts, Odia consonants have the inherent vowel "a", and take one of several modifying vowel signs to represent syllables with another vowel or no vowel at all.

|}

=== Conjuncts of ଫ ===
As is common in Indic scripts, Odia joins letters together to form conjunct consonant clusters. The most common conjunct formation is achieved by using a small subjoined form of trailing consonants. Most consonants' subjoined forms are identical to the full form, just reduced in size, although a few drop the curved headline or have a subjoined form not directly related to the full form of the consonant. The second type of conjunct formation is through pure ligatures, where the constituent consonants are written together in a single graphic form. This ligature may be recognizable as being a combination of two characters or it can have a conjunct ligature unrelated to its constituent characters.

* ମ୍ (m) + ଫ (pʰa) gives the ligature mpʰa:
