U+E0162 "󠅢" Variation Selector-115 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

󠅢

U+E0162 "󠅢" Variation Selector-115 is a special formatting code within the Unicode Standard, specifically a variation selector used to request a particular glyph variant for a preceding base character. It belongs to a block of selectors designed for standardization purposes, primarily for use with Mongolian script and other complex writing systems, though it is not commonly supported in most modern fonts or text rendering environments. Unlike visible symbols or letters, this character has no inherent visual appearance of its own; instead, it functions invisibly as a digital instruction to a compliant text engine to display a specific stylistic or contextual form of the character that comes before it in the text stream.
