U+0514 "Ԕ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Lha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
Ԕ
U+0514 "Ԕ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Lha is a rare glyph used in the medieval Cyrillic alphabet to represent a specific sound, typically a lateral fricative or a lateral affricate, found in certain early Slavic dialects and later especially in the Komi language. This letter is distinct from the standard Cyrillic Л (El) and was historically employed in the alphabet devised for the Komi people during the early 20th century, where it denoted a voiceless alveolar lateral fricative. As a part of the Cyrillic Extended-B block, it is now largely obsolete in modern standardized writing systems, though it remains of interest to linguists and historical typographers studying the evolution of Cyrillic script.
