U+113B5 "𑎵" Tulu-Tigalari Letter Llla Unicode Character

U+113B5 "𑎵" Tulu-Tigalari Letter Llla is a distinct glyph used in the Tulu-Tigalari script, an ancient abugida historically employed to write the Tulu language in the South Canara region of India, as well as for Sanskrit manuscripts. This specific character represents the retroflex lateral approximant sound typically transliterated as "ḷḷ," a longer or geminated version of the standard retroflex L, and is one of several letters in the script's consonant inventory that accommodates the phonetic nuances of Tulu. The inclusion of this character in Unicode, as part of the Tulu-Tigalari block added in version 16.0, supports the digital preservation and modern representation of a writing system that was previously at risk of being lost to time.
