U+A4D7 "ꓗ" Lisu Letter Ka Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ꓗ
U+A4D7 "ꓗ" Lisu Letter Ka is a symbol from the Lisu script, which was developed in the early 20th century by missionary James O. Fraser and others to write the Lisu language, spoken by the Lisu people in China, Myanmar, Thailand, and India. This character represents the consonant sound "ka" and is part of the Fraser alphabet, a roman-based writing system uniquely devised for the tonal and phonetic complexities of Lisu. It is encoded in the Unicode standard under the Lisu block, enabling its digital representation and use in modern electronic communication, text processing, and linguistic documentation, thereby preserving the cultural and linguistic heritage of the Lisu community.
