The ◜ symbol represents the upper left quadrant of a circular arc. Originally introduced in Unicode as part of the Geometric Shapes block for text-based drafting, it is often used alongside other arcs to construct curved corners in plain-text diagrams. In modern digital culture, it frequently appears in kaomoji (Japanese emoticons) to depict happy, closed eyes or expressive eyebrows.
