Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+3221 "" Parenthesized Ideograph Two is a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) symbol that represents the number two enclosed within parentheses, primarily used in East Asian typography to denote a numbered item in a list or sequence, such as in administrative or legal contexts where a concise notation is needed. It is part of the Enclosed CJK Letters and Months block, which was added to Unicode to support traditional East Asian formatting practices, and its appearance mimics the style of horizontal or vertical text found in older printed materials. This character is distinct from the separate digits or punctuation that might be combined to form a similar look, as it is a single coded unit for consistent rendering across different software and platforms.
