U+334A "㍊" Square Miribaaru Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
㍊
U+334A "㍊" Square Miribaaru is a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) compatibility ideograph that represents the Japanese word "miribaaru" (ミリバール), which is a transliteration of the metric unit "millibar," a unit of atmospheric pressure. It is part of a set of "Squared Katakana" characters encoded in Unicode to allow for vertical text layout and compatibility with older Japanese character sets, though in modern usage it is rarely typed directly and is instead typically rendered through standard katakana characters.
