U+019B Latin Small Letter Lambda with Stroke
U+019B was added in Unicode version 1.1 in 1993. It belongs to the block Latin Extended-B in the Basic Multilingual Plane.
This character is a Lowercase Letter and is mainly used in the Latin script. Its uppercase variant is Latin Capital Letter Lambda with Stroke and its titlecase variant is Latin Capital Letter Lambda with Stroke. The character is also known as barred lambda and lambda bar.
The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it is written from left to right. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+019B forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it. The glyph can be confused with one other glyph.
The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
The barred lambda, ƛ (U+A7DC LATIN CAPITAL LETTER LAMBDA WITH STROKE, U+019B ƛ LATIN SMALL LETTER LAMBDA WITH STROKE), is a modified letter of the Greek alphabet. It is used by the Salishan and Wakashan languages in Canada. It is also used in Americanist phonetic notation, where it is also known as running man, to transcribe [t͡ɬ]. In physics, it is used to represent the angular wavelength, i.e. the wavelength (λ) divided by 2π (τ), which corresponds to the length taken up by one radian of the wave.
It was first used in a phonetics context in American Anthropologist in 1934:
λ for [dl] has been used in Eskimo by Jenness ... ƛ for [tł] is an innovation formed from λ as ł from l.
It is also used for the affricate [t͡ɬ] in transcribing the Sahaptin language, e.g., iƛúpna ‘he jumped’, and it is commonly used for the same purpose in several languages of the Caucasus. In addition, its counterpart with a combining comma above right (U+0315), ƛ̕, is used for many of the Salish languages, such as Klallam, for an ejective lateral affricate.
