ℹ️ About

The Cyrillic Capital Letter Lje (Љ) is a ligature of Л (El) and Ь (Soft Sign). Created by Vuk Karadžić for use in Serbian and Macedonian, it represents the palatal lateral approximant /ʎ/. Technically, it is an uppercase letter (Lu) in the Cyrillic block, essential for correct pan-Slavic localization and linguistic accuracy in the Balkan region.

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with the separate sequence ЛЬ or the Latin digraph Lj.
