u26B4

U+26B4 is a Unicode code point in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs block. As with many code points in this range, the exact shown glyph is not fixed by the Unicode standard and depends on the font and rendering system in use. In practice, U+26B4 is represented by a symbol that may resemble a star-like or cross-like shape, and it is often used as a decorative icon in text or user interfaces rather than as a letter or punctuation with explicit phonetic meaning.

Encoding and representation: U+26B4 is a scalar value of 9908 in decimal. In UTF-8, it is encoded as the byte sequence E2 9A B4. In HTML, it can be referenced as ⚴ or ⚴. Its appearance thus depends on font support and platform, and some environments may render a missing-glyph box if the glyph is not supported by the chosen font.

Usage context: The code point is part of Unicode’s broad set of pictographs and symbols. It may appear in documents or interfaces where a generic symbolic glyph is needed, or when a font provides a visually suitable representation. Because rendering varies, developers often test U+26B4 across target systems to ensure a consistent user experience, and provide fallback text or descriptive accessibility labels where appropriate.
