What it is and where it’s used: Mahjong Tile Three of Characters is part of the Symbols family (block: Mahjong Tiles). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: MAHJONG TILE THREE OF CHARACTERS depicts the Mahjong Three Of Characters symbol. In text messages and UI, use it to reference Mahjong, tile lists, or game context that involves specific tiles. It is not a general navigation indicator or wind tile, so keep its meaning clear and unambiguous. On different platforms, appearances vary in color and detail, so rely on surrounding words to ensure readers understand the symbol. For accessibility, provide descriptive text nearby so screen readers convey the intended tile meaning. If color emoji aren’t supported, a monochrome fallback may appear. This emoji helps track game state, tile collections, or references to Mahjong in documentation or chat.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F009 in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.

Compatibility & troubleshooting
