U+A9ED "ꧭ" Myanmar Letter Tai Laing Dda is a specific glyph used in the Tai Laing script, which is a writing system closely related to the Burmese script and employed by the Tai Laing (also known as Shan Ni) people in Myanmar. This character represents the voiced dental or retroflex plosive sound /ɖ/ (similar to the "d" in "hard") as it occurs in the Tai Laing language, and it belongs to the Myanmar Extended-A block of Unicode, encoded to support digital text for this minority language. Its usage helps preserve and facilitate modern written communication for Tai Laing speakers, who have a distinct cultural and linguistic identity within the broader Tai-Kadai language family.
