Avocado 🥑
Usage snapshot:
- Used in content written with the Common script; suitable for UI labels and body text.
- Appears in the Unicode block Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs.
History & usage: AVOCADO depicts the avocado fruit as an emoji. In the name, the tokens are LETTERs forming the word AVOCADO; there are no HARD SIGN, SOFT SIGN, or accent markers to indicate phonetic changes. In general orthography, letters encode discrete sounds or ideas, while shape qualifiers describe form traits that influence hierarchy and legibility in printing and on screens. The block is Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs, script is Common, with Extended Pictographic as a historical/specialized variant. Practical uses include reference in educational primers and dictionaries to illustrate contemporary fruit imagery; inclusion in scholarly editions and archival transcription to document modern emoji practice; and inclusion in typographic revivals or specimen books that explore pictographic vocabularies as part of visual culture. If the Extended variant is used, it signals a historical or specialized mode rather than everyday communication. Cross‑platform appearance may vary; ensure accessibility with descriptive alt text for screen readers and clear contrast in display.
