Ł L with stroke

Meaning & usage

L with stroke (Ł) is a Latin letter with a distinctive spelling or diacritic.

Use the correct letter for its language rather than replacing it with a visually similar character.

U+0141 identifies this exact L with stroke form; copying the character preserves its Unicode identity, while its appearance depends on the font or emoji renderer.

L with stroke occupies one Unicode code point. A similar-looking letter, punctuation mark or emoji is not necessarily interchangeable with Ł in search, filenames or text processing.

How to type L with stroke

Windows

Use Win + . for the emoji and symbol panel, or Character Map for supported fonts. In Microsoft Word, enter each hexadecimal code (141) and press Alt + X. There is no universal decimal Alt code for this character; legacy Alt codes depend on the code page.

Mac

Open Character Viewer with Control + Command + Space and search for L with stroke. With the Unicode Hex Input keyboard enabled, hold Option and enter the UTF-16 units shown above. Standard Option shortcuts do not cover every Unicode symbol.

Linux

In compatible GTK applications, press Ctrl + Shift + U, enter 141, then Enter. Enter each code point separately for sequences. Other desktops or apps may require their character picker.

iPhone & Android

Look for L with stroke in your emoji keyboard if available, or copy it here and paste. Save frequently used symbols as a text replacement or keyboard shortcut; availability varies by keyboard.
