U+A4E0 "ꓠ" Lisu Letter Na Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ꓠ
U+A4E0 "ꓠ" Lisu Letter Na is a component of the Lisu script, also known as the Fraser alphabet, which was developed in the early 20th century for writing the Lisu language spoken in parts of China, Myanmar, Thailand, and India. This particular character represents the sound of the consonant "n" and is used as a syllabic element within the script, which visually resembles a modified Roman alphabet but operates as a distinct writing system. Its inclusion in Unicode 5.2 in 2009 ensures that this letter can be digitally represented and exchanged across modern computing platforms, supporting the preservation and use of the endangered Lisu language in electronic communications and digital documents.
