口, X53E3 is unicode character number 21475, KanjiLiberal.
In Japanese, 口 can be pronounced as "kuchi" and mean mouth.
At site nihongomaster, 口 appears as kanji number 845
[4].
Many other Unicode characters have similar drawing and are easy to confuse each other.
⼝,⼞,ロ,口,ロ
The 5 unicode characters are similar.
All of them, at the first glance, look as rectangles.
Some programming is necessary to identify each of these characters.
Their Utf8 encoding can be revealed with PHP program du.t; command
php du.t ⼝⼞ロ口ロ
produces the following output:
⼝⼞ロ口ロ
The array has 15 bytes; here is its splitting:

Character 口 can be pronounced as "kuchi"[5].
Being written close to other kanji(s), it can be pronounced also as "guchi".
Graphic

Semantic

Examples

Confusion
口 (X53E3) is highly confusional character.
Even a native Japanese speaker, looking at characters
⼝,
⼞,
ロ,
口,
ロ,
cannot answer:
which of them is X2F1D (KanjiRadical)?
which of them is X2F1E (KanjiRadical)?
which of them is X30ED (Katkana "ro")?
which of them is X53E3 (KanjiLiberal)?
which of them is XFF9B ( Character from the UnicodeBottom table)?
The manuals on Japanese, as well as dictionaries (Jishos) usually ignore this confusion.
Those, who learn Japanese, have to investigate such a cases by themselves.
Only one of the 5 characters, 口, X53E3, is qualified as KanjiLiberal.
Perhaps, namely this character should be used for generation of Japanese texts.
