Double Square Intersection

79/256

⩎ is a specialized square intersection operator in mathematical notation; the surrounding rules define what is being intersected. In LaTeX, a math typesetting system, the mathabx package provides it as \sqdoublecap.

What ⩎ means

⩎ is the double square intersection. Unicode classifies it as a mathematical symbol and files it in the Supplemental Mathematical Operators block; this site shelves it under Maths.

Its appearance depends on the font and text styling.

How it is encoded

⩎ is a single code point, U2A4E. In HTML that is ⩎, and in CSS \2A4E.

Why does ⩎ show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
