History & usage: PEANUTS depicts the emoji peanut. The name is a word built from letters that spell the idea in a compact form; the functional token type here is LETTER, signaling how a sign can carry meaning through a conventional spelling. The absence of shape qualifiers in the name means no extra typographic modifiers are signaled by the label itself.

In practice, scholars label this pictograph in dictionaries and grammars to show it as a modern symbol for a peanut, separate from prose text. It appears in educational primers to illustrate how pictographs convey everyday objects. It also helps archival transcription and paleography in noting contemporary emoji signs alongside older symbol sets. Typographic revivals and specimen collections may cite it as an example of gesture-like imagery in the Extended pictographic family, aiding comparisons across design histories.

Across platforms, the symbol should be accessible with descriptive alt text and consistent ordering in lists, making it usable for screen readers and inclusive displays.
