History & usage: The SQUARED CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-5272 depicts a square form of a CJK character. Use it in messages to stand in for that specific character when the full glyph is unavailable, or to indicate a related concept in a symbolic way. In UI or documentation, it can mark a placeholder for language content that uses the character, helping maintain layout and meaning when exact text cannot be shown. In multilingual interfaces, it aids cross‑language comprehension by signaling a character-based concept without requiring translation. Across platforms, expect color, size, and style differences, and provide text alternatives to preserve meaning. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended sense so assistive tech can interpret it clearly, and avoid relying on the emoji alone to convey important information."} }```Oops that's invalid JSON with extra backticks and quotes.
