Etymology[edit]

Pronunciation[edit]
IPA (file)
Symbol[edit]
ʎ
- (IPA) a palatal lateral approximant.
- May stand in for palatalized [lʲ].
- (superscript ⟨𐞠⟩) [ʎ]-release of a plosive, sometimes implying an affricate; [ʎ]-coloring or a weak, fleeting or epenthetic [ʎ].
Usage notes[edit]
The implication that the superscript indicates an affricate is especially strong when this is written ⟨𐞠̥⟩ with a voiceless base letter, as the proper lateral-fricative letters ⟨𝼆⟩ and ⟨𐞡⟩ were only made official in 2015; or when written ⟨𐞠̝⟩ with a voiced base letter.
In orthographies, the capital form is ⟨⟩.
