Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+24B2 "" Parenthesized Latin Small Letter W is a typographic symbol belonging to the Enclosed Alphanumerics block, designed to represent the lowercase letter "w" enclosed within parentheses for use in lists, diagrams, or notation systems where compact visual grouping is needed. It is one of many parenthesized Latin letters included in Unicode to support formatted text in contexts like academic outlines, technical documentation, or retro computing environments. This character draws its graphical form from the standard ASCII letter "w" bounded by a left and right parenthesis, ensuring it complements similarly styled characters in a sequence. Its primary function is to serve as a distinct, single code point for a parenthesized lowercase "w" rather than requiring a combination of separate characters.
