U+3335 "㌵" Square Huran Unicode Character

U+3335 "㌵" Square Huran is a CJK compatibility ideograph that represents a square version of the Japanese katakana word "フラン" (furan), which itself is a loanword abbreviation for the English word "franc," the former currency unit of France, Belgium, Switzerland, and other nations. Part of the "Squared Katakana" block in Unicode, this character was originally encoded for compatibility with preexisting Japanese character sets, where it was used in East Asian typography to denote the "franc" currency in a compact, monospaced form, though its practical usage has largely diminished with the adoption of the euro and modern digital encoding standards.
