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: The character depicts CARROT. In its name, there are no sign or diacritic tokens; the term is a simple, single lexical item, with no additional shape or qualifier tokens. In orthography and typography, base nouns like this carry meaning as a unit of reference and can be treated as a pictorial symbol with simple semantic load rather than a phonetic mark. 2–3 practical contexts arise from its information as a Common-script emoji in the Extended Pictographic set: first, in dictionaries and grammars as a contemporaneous pictographic entry used to annotate plant foods and everyday objects in illustrated lexicons; second, in educational primers and scholarly editions to demonstrate modern emblematic usage in digital text and cross-cultural communication; third, in archival transcription and paleographic studies where the symbol is catalogued as part of a pictographic repertoire and cited in typographic revivals or specimen books. cross-platform appearance and accessibility notes: renderers should provide descriptive alt text and ensure contrast for screen readers across platforms.

Compatibility & troubleshooting
