U+0E90 "ຐ" Lao Letter Pali Ttha is a rarely used character in the Lao script, specifically representing a retroflex aspirated consonant sound from the Pali language, which is often employed in religious and scholarly texts related to Buddhism. This letter corresponds to the Pali consonant "ṭha" and is derived from the ancient Brahmi script, functioning primarily as a specialized glyph for transliterating Pali or Sanskrit terms rather than appearing in everyday modern Lao writing. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures the accurate digital representation and preservation of historical liturgical manuscripts and linguistic materials that utilize this distinct character.
