𑆭

This character corresponds to the sound similar to the English "l" but pronounced with the tongue curled back, and it forms part of the Sharada block in Unicode, which was added to support the script's digital preservation and scholarly study. Its inclusion enables accurate text representation and electronic processing of historical manuscripts and modern inscriptions that employ this distinctive Brahmic script.
