Neri

Various pics of Neri characters

Nerima city, 練馬区 ^[1]

Neri is set of the following Unicode characters:

X7DF4 練 ^[2], KanjiLiberal
XF996 練 ^[3], KanjiConfudal
XFA57 練 ^[4], KanjiConfudal

They have similar graphical representation, similar sounds (often, "neru" or "neri") and similar meaning: to practice, treatment.

Also, term Neri may refer to each of characters mentioned above and/or
their writing with Hiragana, ねる or ねり, and/or
their pronunciation and/or their meaning.

Confusion

There are 3 similar characters and 4 similar pictures at the top figure.
In principle, one could make the bijection between the three characters and some three of the four pictures.

Practically, this does not happen: each of the four pictures at the top can be attributed to each of the three Neri characters, and vice versa.
Even a native Japanese speaker, watching characters 練, 練, 練, is unlikely to answer:
Which of them is X7DF4?
Which of them is XF996?
Which of them is XFA57?

At the doubts, the correct specification of the character is

"X7DF4 練 or XF996 練 or XFA57 練"

Such a construction is long and difficult to use.
Notation Neri is defined above, as short substitute of this long construction.

Some software also confuse these characters.
Silently, without any warning, character XF996 練 or XFA57 練, may be automatically substituted, replaced to X7DF4 練.
In particular, at the default setting of mediawiki, it is not possible to load separate articles for with names corresponding to all the three Neru:
An attempt to access an article named 練 (XF996) or 練 (XFA57) automatically redirect to article 練 (X7DF4).
This may cause the need to access the kanjis by their hexadecimal numbers X7DF4, XF996, XFA57.

In order to trace the unauthorized substitutions, some programming is necessary.
The Utf8 encoding of the characters mentioned can be calculated by the PHP program ud.t activated with command

php ud.t 7DF4 F996 FA57

The output is

7DF4 32244 練練
Unicode character number 32244 id est, X7DF4
Picture: 練 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE7 XB7 XB4 in the hexadecimal representation and
231 183 180 in the decimal representation

Unicode character number 63894 id est, XF996
Picture: 練 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:

239 166 150 in the decimal representation

Unicode character number 64087 id est, XFA57
Picture: 練 ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:

X7DF4 練

練 by Jisho ^[5]

Among the Neru characters, X7DF4 練 seems to be most popular.
At least, it is presented both in Jisho ^[5] and in Nihongomaster ^[6].

The phonetic and semantic parts of article X7DF4 練 are not repeated here.

Nerima

練馬 license plate ^[7]

None of these dictionaries mention appear of neri characters at the vehicle license plates.
At the license plate, the combination looks similar to 練馬.
Such a combination refers to the specific place, Nerima prefecture near Tokyo.

Word Nerima may refer to the following combinations of kanjis:

At some computers (Macintosh), all the six words look the same.

The Second case, id est, 練馬, seems to be most popular in the internet articles.
