Unicode Version 17.0
𑎳
U+113B3 "𑎳" Tulu-Tigalari Letter Lla is a character in the Tulu-Tigalari script, an abugida historically used by the Tulu-speaking community in the coastal region of Karnataka and Kerala, India, primarily for writing the Tulu language and occasionally Sanskrit. This character specifically represents the retroflex lateral approximant sound similar to the English 'l' but articulated with the tongue curled back. Its inclusion in Unicode, as part of the Tulu-Tigalari block added in version 16.0, supports the digital preservation and modern use of this minority script, which was traditionally used for religious, literary, and administrative purposes.
