U+32F5 "㋵" Circled Katakana Yo Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+32F5 "㋵" Circled Katakana Yo is a precomposed CJK compatibility ideograph that represents the Japanese katakana syllable "Yo" enclosed within a circle, designed for use in East Asian typography, particularly in maps, signage, and other simplified notation systems where distinguishing labels or categories is necessary. It belongs to the Enclosed CJK Letters and Months block, which was introduced in Unicode 1.1, and its compatibility context stems from legacy Japanese character sets where such circled forms were standardized for ease of display in limited character grids. While visually similar to a regular katakana Yo modified by an enclosing circle, this encoded version ensures consistent rendering across platforms without relying on combining characters or font-specific styling.
