Qof ק The Ape.

Qof ק is the 19th letter of the Hebrew alep bet. Its numerical value is 100. Qof ק means ape. In this letter we see ourselves mimicking another just as a monkey at the zoo might mimick a person. In its construction we see the kaf כ blessing the vav ו. The first time qof ק is found as the root of a word in Torah is at Genesis 1:5 in the word קרא qera; to call or cry out.
