Unicode Version 17.0

U+174E "ᝎ" Buhid Letter La is a character from the Buhid script, an abugida historically used to write the Buhid language of the Mangyan people in the Philippines. It represents the syllable "la" and belongs to the Buhid block of the Unicode Standard, which encodes a subset of scripts indigenous to the Philippines. This character, like others in its block, is primarily used for historical and cultural documentation, as the Buhid script is now rarely used in everyday writing, having been largely supplanted by the Latin alphabet.
