Tai Le

U+1950 – U+197F   (6480–6527)

The Tai Le range was introduced with version 4.0 of the Unicode Standard, and is located in Plane 0, the Basic Multilingual Plane.

Tai Le (which is also known as Chinese Shan, Dehong Dai, Tai Kong, Tai Mau and Tai Nüa), is a script and language that is used in parts of the Chinese province of Yunnan and in parts of Laos, Myanmar and Thailand.

Microsoft Windows incorporates support for Tai Le Unicode from Windows 7 onwards.

The characters that appear in the “Character” columns of the following table depend on the browser that you are using, the fonts installed on your computer, and the browser options you have chosen that determine the fonts used to display particular character sets, encodings or languages.

You can find some or all of the characters in this range in the Windows Unicode fonts Fixedsys Excelsior, Free Serif, Microsoft Tai Le (in Windows 7), MPH 2B Damase and Tai Le Valentinium.

To see exactly which characters are included in a particular font, you can use a utility such as Andrew West’s BabelMap, or WunderMoosen’s FontChecker.

If you are not familiar with the characters, you can check the characters displayed here with the graphical display at http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1950.pdf.
