What ⃨ means
Put it after the symbol it belongs under.
⃨ is a combining mark with no spacing of its own, meant to attach below the preceding base symbol. In a text sequence, write the base first and ⃨ immediately after it; the notation decides whether the resulting combination has a special mathematical meaning.
Does triple underdot mean anything by itself?
No fixed reading exists without its base and notation.
The dots describe the mark's shape, not a complete meaning. Any mathematical interpretation comes from the base symbol and the notation around it.
If someone sends ⃨ alone, treat it as incomplete technical text and ask what base symbol it belongs to before assigning a reading.
Why does the triple underdot look different in different fonts?
A font can shift the dots or leave them unattached.
Check the full sequence in the target font and typesetting engine: font metrics and rendering support can shift the mark or leave it unattached. The text sequence can be correct even when its display is awkward.
Technical: it belongs in formulas, font tests, or source text, not casual conversation.
Dots alone do not carry a reading; check the base symbol and its notation.

1Will fonts render this mark the same way?
No. Font metrics and the typesetting engine affect placement, so check the whole base-plus-mark sequence in the intended font.
