Meaning & usage
Circled small z (ⓩ) places a letter or number inside a surrounding shape.
Use it for a compact list marker or label; enclosed forms remain separate Unicode characters.
U+24E9 identifies this exact circled small z form; copying the character preserves its Unicode identity, while its appearance depends on the font or emoji renderer.
circled small z occupies one Unicode code point. A similar-looking letter, punctuation mark or emoji is not necessarily interchangeable with ⓩ in search, filenames or text processing.
How to type circled small z
- Windows
- Use Win + . for the emoji and symbol panel, or Character Map for supported fonts. In Microsoft Word, enter each hexadecimal code (24E9) and press Alt + X. There is no universal decimal Alt code for this character; legacy Alt codes depend on the code page.
- Mac
- Open Character Viewer with Control + Command + Space and search for circled small z. With the Unicode Hex Input keyboard enabled, hold Option and enter the UTF-16 units shown above. Standard Option shortcuts do not cover every Unicode symbol.
- Linux
- In compatible GTK applications, press Ctrl + Shift + U, enter 24E9, then Enter. Enter each code point separately for sequences. Other desktops or apps may require their character picker.
- iPhone & Android
- Look for circled small z in your emoji keyboard if available, or copy it here and paste. Save frequently used symbols as a text replacement or keyboard shortcut; availability varies by keyboard.
