About this character

U+1F142 (🅂) is SQUARED LATIN CAPITAL LETTER S, a symbol in the Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement block. Its script is Common: it is shared by many writing systems rather than belonging to one. It was added in Unicode 5.2 (2009).

It is a squared (CJK compatibility) form of U+0053 S (compatibility decomposition <square>). NFC and NFD leave it alone, but NFKC and NFKD replace it with U+0053 S. Search engines, identifier checks and username systems that apply NFKC will treat the two as the same text.

Its East Asian Width is Ambiguous: it takes one column in Western contexts and two in East Asian legacy contexts, a common cause of misaligned tables in terminals.
