U+1020 "ဠ" Myanmar Letter Lla Unicode Character

U+1020 "ဠ" Myanmar Letter Lla is a character from the Myanmar script, specifically representing the consonant sound /l̥a/ or a voiceless lateral approximant, and is used in the Burmese language to write words of Pali or foreign origin, such as in Buddhist texts or loanwords. Its visual form resembles a circle with a small curl and a vertical stroke, and it is distinct from the more common Myanmar letter La (U+101C) by its additional loop, reflecting its historical role in transcribing sounds not native to standard Burmese phonology. The character is encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Myanmar block, which supports the writing system for languages like Burmese, Mon, and Karen, and it is positioned as the last letter of the traditional Myanmar consonant chart.
