U+32EC "㋬" Circled Katakana He Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+32EC "㋬" Circled Katakana He is a visual glyph that combines the Japanese katakana syllable "He" (ヘ) enclosed within a circle, forming part of the CJK Compatibility block in the Unicode standard. It was designed primarily for compatibility with legacy East Asian character encodings, where such circled symbols were used in various contexts such as early digital game interfaces, educational materials, or list markers to denote a specific option or point. In modern use, this character is rarely employed in everyday text, as its function has largely been replaced by standard punctuation, emoji, or custom formatting, but it remains available for historical or specialized applications where that specific visual representation is required.
