LEPCHA LETTER MLA is other letters, including syllables and ideographs from the Basic Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of LEPCHA LETTER MLA is Left-to-Right (Strong). It belongs to the strong left-to-right characters..

The Left-to-Right (L) bidi class is assigned to characters that are written from left to right. This includes most alphabetic characters from Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, and other scripts that are typically written in this direction. The presence of L characters in a text influences the overall text directionality in bidirectional contexts.

Other Letter (Lo) refers to letters that do not fit into the uppercase, lowercase, titlecase, or modifier letter categories. These include letters from scripts that do not have case distinction, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, and others. This category is also used for syllabic and ideographic characters that function as letters.

This character belongs to the Lepcha block. The Lepcha block contains characters used in the Lepcha script, which is used for writing the Lepcha language spoken in the northeastern region of India, particularly in Sikkim and West Bengal. The script is an abugida, where each consonant is written with an inherent vowel sound that can be modified with diacritics. The Lepcha script was created in the 18th century by King Phyagdor Namgyal of Sikkim and has been used primarily for religious texts, poetry, and folklore. This block includes all the necessary characters for writing in Lepcha, reflecting the script’s cultural and religious significance..
