Horses grazing by Britannica [1]

X2EE2 is Unicode character number 12002, Uma.

As other Uma characters, can be pronounced as "Uma" and denote a horse(s).

Software-dependent

At some computers (Mac), appears as a stilised horse, similar to the unicode characters or .

At some software (Debian), the unicode character number 12002 (X2EE2) is not supplied with a specific picture;
appears as

2E
E2

In such a way X2EE2 is confusive character.

Characters with numbers similar to are qualified as Unicode CJK Radicals Supplement [2].

Uma

If the character is supported, it is considered as Kanji Uma.

Several characters are interpreted as Uma. These characters are

  1. 12002, id est, X2EE2, [3] ; not supported as some computers
  2. 12218 id est, X2FBA, [4], KanjiRadical
  3. 39340 id est, X99AC, [5], KanjiLiberal
  4. 39532 id est, X9A6C [6], KanjiLiberal

Each of these characters may be read as "uma" and denote a horse.

The Utf8 encoding or these characters can be calculated with PHP program ud.t, activated by command

php ud.t 2EE2 2FBA 99AC 9A6C

The output is

2EE2 12002
Unicode character number 12002 id est, X2EE2
Picture:  ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE2 XBB XA2 in the hexadecimal representation and
226 187 162 in the decimal representation

2FBA 12218
Unicode character number 12218 id est, X2FBA
Picture:  ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE2 XBE XBA in the hexadecimal representation and
226 190 186 in the decimal representation

99AC 39340
Unicode character number 39340 id est, X99AC
Picture:  ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE9 XA6 XAC in the hexadecimal representation and
233 166 172 in the decimal representation

9A6C 39532
Unicode character number 39532 id est, X9A6C
Picture:  ; uses 3 bytes. These bytes are:
XE9 XA9 XAC in the hexadecimal representation and
233 169 172 in the decimal representation

Confusion

The printed version of characters X2EE2 and X9A6C are similar.

Even a native Japanese speler, looking from Macintosh at characters , is unlikely to answer:
Which of them is X2EE2?
Which of them is X9A6C?

The correct interpretation of a printed version of character would be cumbersome construction

X2EE2 or X9A6C

Notation Uma is defined to substitute this expression with the single word.
