U+1C9A "" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Las is the uppercase form of the Georgian letter "Lasi," which is used in the modern Georgian Mkhedruli script and represents the sound /l/. Part of the Mtavruli case, which typically appears in all-caps headings or titles, this character was added to the Unicode standard in version 11.0 (2018) to provide a distinct capital letter for Georgian text that aligns with the uppercase distinction found in other alphabets, such as Latin or Cyrillic. Before this addition, capital letters in Georgian were often represented using the same glyphs as lowercase or were styled with different font sizes, making U+1C9A a significant step for proper typographic casing in the language.
