U+1F121 "🄡" Parenthesized Latin Capital Letter R Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

🄡

U+1F121 "🄡" Parenthesized Latin Capital Letter R is a typographic symbol belonging to the Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement block, designed to represent a capital letter R enclosed within parentheses for use in specialized notation, such as labeling, lists, or annotation systems where clarity and compact formatting are required. It is one of several parenthesized Latin letters in Unicode, serving as a visual indicator that can denote a specific item, category, or reference point, and it is distinct from standard parentheses combined with a typed R due to its precomposed, single‑glyph form. This character is part of a broader set of enclosed characters that were encoded to support legacy applications, teletext, or custom symbol sets, and it is available in modern fonts that include the Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement range.
