A mountain and a volcano at once
Unicode prints Mount Fuji between Volcano and Camping. The real mountain is a volcano too: by Wikipedia it is a stratovolcano, classed as active, whose last eruption ran from December 1707 to January 1708.
Why it is Fuji-san
By Wikipedia the san of Fuji-san is not the polite ending used after a personβs name: it is a reading of ε±±, the character for mountain. Wiktionary lists Fujiyama as a much less common reading of ε―士山.
By Wikipedia snow covers the cone about five months a year. The combo Snow cap adds a snowflake.
Dreaming of Fuji, a hawk and an eggplant first in the new year is lucky, by Wikipedia. The comboβs hawk is an eagle.
Questions and answers
What does the π» emoji mean?
It is Mount Fuji, at 3,776 meters the highest peak in Japan, by Wikipedia. Unicode gives the emoji that name and nothing more. CLDR also files it under mountain and nature, so a search for either word finds it.
What is the difference between π» and ποΈ?
The first is one named mountain, from Emoji 0.6. The second is Snow-capped mountain, any peak with snow, from Emoji 0.7. Snow-capped mountain has a text style form and Mount Fuji has none.
How do you write Mount Fuji in Japanese?
In kanji it is ε―士山, three characters, and in hiragana γ΅γγγ, as Wikipedia gives them. Both are read Fujisan.
