What ⌇ means
As of 2026, ⌇ marks Chinese titles in a wavy style. Chinese title marks identify books, articles, newspapers, films, and other works. The wavy form repeats ⌇ before and after the title; angled marks such as 《》 are another option.
The Chinese title-mark convention entered formal use after 1919, as written vernacular Chinese became an official form of writing. As of 2026, angled marks are usual in Hong Kong, while Taiwanese schoolbooks still mainly use the wavy form.

1Why 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.
