U+1C64 "ᱤ" Ol Chiki Letter Li Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᱤ
U+1C64 "ᱤ" Ol Chiki Letter Li is a glyph from the Ol Chiki script, which was created in the 20th century by Pandit Raghunath Murmu specifically for writing the Santali language, an Austroasiatic language spoken by the Santal people of eastern India. This particular character represents the syllable "li" and is used as a consonant in the Ol Chiki alphabet, which does not follow the typical Brahmi-derived scripts of the region but instead features a unique, native design. Its inclusion in Unicode, starting with version 5.1 in 2008, ensures that digital text in Santali can be accurately represented and preserved across modern computing platforms.
