U+335F "㍟" Ideographic Telegraph Symbol for Hour Seven Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
㍟
U+335F "㍟" Ideographic Telegraph Symbol for Hour Seven is a CJK Compatibility ideograph that represents the specific time of seven o'clock, encoded for use in legacy telegraph systems and certain East Asian text environments. It belongs to a block of symbols designed to match the fixed-width formatting of traditional Chinese and Japanese telegraph codes, where each hour of the day from one to twenty four has a corresponding single character. While rarely used in modern digital communication, this symbol survives in Unicode to preserve historical encoding practices and can appear in specialized contexts such as old schedules or compatibility documents.
