so where is the “L” in pamilya?

The person who has the tattoo opted for “tradional” Baybayin where only letters followed by a vowel are used with the exception for vowels themselves. In modern Baybayin, a cancellation kudlit is used to “cancel” the following vowel sound as shown in the bottom file. The L is represented by the LA character with the X underneath it. The X converts the LA to L.

i’m planning to get “pamilia” tattooed as well. would it be ok to use the design above? it wont be exact, i have a friend from samoa born in hawaii that has already done a half sleeve for me. i’m gonna ask him to put his on twist on it so it all fits together. thanks!
