U+076A "ݪ" Arabic Letter Lam with Bar Unicode Character

U+076A "ݪ" Arabic Letter Lam with Bar is a modified letter used primarily in the Arabic script for certain languages, most notably in the Marwari language of South Asia, as well as in some other regional orthographies such as those for Saraiki and Kashmiri. It consists of the standard Arabic letter lam (ل) with a horizontal bar drawn through its upper stem, representing a distinct phonetic sound, typically a retroflex lateral approximant or a voiced alveolar lateral fricative, which is not found in standard Arabic. This character is part of the Arabic Extended-A block in Unicode, enabling precise digital representation of these non-Arabic sounds in written texts.
