They are also known as Red Karen and Karenni. Eastern Kayah Li is spoken by about 26,000 people, and Western Kayah Li by about 100,000 people, mostly in the Kayah and Karen states of Myanmar, but also by people living in Thailand.

It is taught in schools in refugee camps in Thailand. Kayah Li\u2019s relation to Brahmic scripts can be seen in its ordering and the shapes of some of its letters, although the shapes of most of them were developed independently. At least nine of its characters bear a relation to characters in the Myanmar script.Description[edit]Unlike the Myanmar script,  the Kayah Li script is an alphabet proper as the consonant letters do not have any subsequent vowel. Four of the vowels are written with separate letter, the others are written using a combination of the letter for a and a diacritic marker. The diacritics can also be used in combination with the letter for \u01a1 to represent sounds occurring in loanwords. There is also a set of three diacritics that are used to indicate tone. Unlike the vowel diacritics, that are written above the letter, these are written under.Vowels[edit]\ua922\ua923\ua924\ua925\ua922\ua926\ua922\ua927\ua922\ua928\ua922\ua929\ua922\ua92aa\u01a1i\u00f4\u01b0eu\u00eao[a][\u0264][i][o][\u026f][\u025b][u][e][\u0254]Vowels used for loanwords[edit]\ua923\ua926\ua923\ua927\ua923\ua928\ua923\ua929\ua923\ua92a\u01a1\u01b0\u01b0e\u01a1u\u01a1\u00ea\u01a1o[\u0264\u026f][\u026f\u025b][\u0264u][\u0264e][\u0264\u0254]Tone markers[edit]\ua922\ua92b\ua922\ua92c\ua922\ua92dhighlowmedialConsonants[edit]\ua90a\ua90b\ua90c\ua90d\ua90e\ua90f\ua910\ua911kkhgngsshzhny[k][k\u02b0][\u0261][\u014b][s][s\u02b0][\u0291][\u0272]\ua912\ua913\ua914\ua915\ua916\ua917\ua918\ua919thtnpphmdb[t][t\u02b0][n][p][p\u02b0][m][d][b]\ua91a\ua91b\ua91c\ua91d\ua91e\ua91f\ua920\ua921rylwthhvc[r][j][l][w][\u0255,\u03b8,s][h][v][t\u0255]Digits[edit]\ua900\ua901\ua902\ua903\ua904\ua905\ua906\ua907\ua908\ua9090123456789Unicode[edit]Kayah Li was added to the Unicode Standard in April, 2008 with the release of version 5.1.The Unicode block for Kayah Li is U+A900\u2013U+A92F:Kayah Li[1]Official Unicode Consortium code chart (PDF)\u00a00123456789ABCDEFU+A90x\ua900\ua901\ua902\ua903\ua904\ua905\ua906\ua907\ua908\ua909\ua90a\ua90b\ua90c\ua90d\ua90e\ua90fU+A91x\ua910\ua911\ua912\ua913\ua914\ua915\ua916\ua917\ua918\ua919\ua91a\ua91b\ua91c\ua91d\ua91e\ua91fU+A92x\ua920\ua921\ua922\ua923\ua924\ua925\ua926\ua927\ua928\ua929\ua92a\ua92b\ua92c\ua92d\ua92e\ua92fNotes1.^ As of Unicode version 15.0See also[edit]External links[edit]References[edit]Everson, Michael (2006-03-09). “Proposal for encoding the Kayah Li script in the BMP of the UCS” (PDF).
