U+A4D5 "ꓕ" Lisu Letter Tha Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+A4D5 "ꓕ" Lisu Letter Tha is a letter used in the Lisu writing system, which was originally created by missionary James O. Fraser and later standardized for the Lisu language spoken primarily in Yunnan, China, Myanmar, and Thailand. This specific character represents the sound "th" as in the English word "thin," and it belongs to the Fraser alphabet, an adaptation of the Latin script with unique uppercase and lowercase forms that are distinct from standard Latin letters. The Lisu script, including the Letter Tha, was encoded in the Unicode standard as part of the Lisu block (U+A4D0 to U+A4FF) to support digital communication and preservation of the language.
