U+E0136 "󠄶" Variation Selector-71 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

󠄶

U+E0136 "󠄶" Variation Selector-71 is a specialized invisible code point used in combination with a preceding base character to request a specific glyph variant defined in a standardized variation sequence, particularly for CJK ideographs in the Ideographic Variation Database. It does not represent a visible symbol or letter on its own but functions as a formatting tag that instructs a font to display an alternative graphical representation of the preceding character, such as a different stroke shape or composition. This mechanism allows for precise control over the appearance of complex characters without changing their underlying meaning or text encoding. As part of a broader set of 256 variation selectors, VS71 is reserved for future or specific standard sequences and is not typically encountered in ordinary text.
