unicode Characters can consist of multiple code points Emoji and flags
Example
A lot of emoji consist of more than one code point.
- 🇯🇵: A flag is defined as a pair of "regional symbol indicator letters" (🇯 + 🇵)
- 🙋🏿: Some emoji may be followed by a skin tone modifier: 🙋 + 🏿
- 😀︎ or 😀️: Windows 10 allows you to specify if an emoji is colored or black/white by appending a variation selector (
U+FE0EorU+FE0F) - 👨👩👧👦: a family. Encoded by joining the emoji for boy, girl, woman and man (👦, 👧, 👩, 👨) together with zero-width joiners (
U+200D). On platforms which support it, this is rendered as an emoji of a family with two kids.
