U+E01D5 "󠇕" Variation Selector-230 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

󠇕

U+E01D5 "󠇕" Variation Selector-230 is a part of the Standardized Variation Sequences mechanism, which allows a preceding base character to be displayed in a specific alternative glyph style. This particular selector, numbered 230, is invisible on its own and serves solely as a formatting code that modifies the appearance of the character it follows, typically within a small set of defined textual or symbolic sequences. Unlike emoji variation selectors that switch between text and emoji presentation, U+E01D5 is used in specialized contexts, such as in certain CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) ideographic displays or with characters from the Ideographic Variation Sequences database. Its primary purpose is to ensure consistent visual representation of complex characters across different fonts and platforms, but it has no inherent meaning or audible pronunciation by itself.
