A perfect fourth widened by a half step. Same sound as the diminished fifth, different letter, different behaviour.

What is true of it
D♯ up a augmented fourth is G𝄪: 6 half steps, and 4 letters counting both ends.
Turn it upside down — put the D♯ on top — and it becomes a diminished fifth. The two numbers always add to nine, and the two sizes to twelve.
It is a dissonance.
Six half steps can be written two ways: D♯ to G𝄪 is a fourth, D♯ to A is a fifth. They sound the same and behave differently.
