Hebrew Letter Lamed With Dagesh Letter Meaning
“לּ” (U+FB3C) is the Unicode character named HEBREW LETTER LAMED WITH DAGESH. In Hebrew orthography, dagesh is a diacritic mark that can affect pronunciation and sometimes distinguishes related letter forms. When a piece of text specifically uses the lamed-with-dagesh variant, this single character helps preserve the intended written form across platforms and fonts. Because it is encoded as its own character, using “לּ” is typically more reliable than trying to approximate it via separate characters or diacritics—especially in web design, digital typography, and text that must match a specific source.
Common uses

- •Web development and UI strings that must match a provided Unicode code point (U+FB3C)
- •Document preparation for Hebrew content that must render consistently across devices
