Unicode Version 17.0
啦
U+5566 "啦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that functions primarily as a modal particle in Mandarin, often used at the end of sentences to convey a cheerful, explanatory, or imperative tone, frequently appearing in informal or colloquial speech to indicate a change of state or to soften a command. It is composed of the radical "口" (mouth) on the left, signifying its connection to speech or sound, and the phonetic component "拉" (la) on the right, which provides its pronunciation. In addition to its linguistic role, "啦" is commonly encountered in everyday contexts such as in Chinese song lyrics, text messages, and online communication, where it adds a sense of liveliness or emotional emphasis.
