The history of the letter -L- L is the twelfth letter of the basic modern Latin alphabet.

In English it is pronounced /l/ and the name of the letter is spelled el or occasionally ell. The letter L is derived from the Phoenician crook or goad which stood for /l/. This originally may have been based on an Egyptian hieroglyph that was adapted by Semites for alphabetic purposes.

The goad It is a traditional farming implement, used to guide life stock usually oxen.

The development of the letter L Egyptian hieroglyph Proto-Semitic Lamed Phoenician lamed Etruscan L Greek lambda
