U+24B1 "⒱" Parenthesized Latin Small Letter V Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+24B1 "⒱" Parenthesized Latin Small Letter V is a typographic glyph belonging to the Enclosed Alphanumerics block, designed for use as a single character symbol representing the letter V enclosed within parentheses. It is typically employed in contexts such as lists, diagrams, or annotation systems where a parenthesized alphanumeric label is needed, often as part of a sequence like ⒰, ⒱, ⒲. This character is not intended for regular text substitution but rather for specialized formatting or notation, and it is encoded separately from a normal V and parentheses to ensure consistent display across platforms. Its inclusion in the standard is part of a broader set of parenthesized Latin letters, which are commonly found in educational materials, outlines, or legacy code page mappings.
