U+170E "ᜎ" Tagalog Letter La is a character from the Baybayin script, an ancient writing system historically used for the Tagalog language in the Philippines. This character represents the syllable "la" and is part of the Hanunoo block within Unicode, which was added to support the revival and digital preservation of indigenous Philippine scripts. Its use today is primarily scholarly, cultural, and occasional in decorative contexts, as the Roman alphabet has largely replaced Baybayin for everyday writing.
