Regional Indicator Symbol Letter R Letter Meaning
The character 🇷 is named “Regional Indicator Symbol Letter R” (Unicode U+1F1F7). On its own, it functions as a regional indicator letter rather than a complete flag. Its most common role is to be paired with another regional indicator symbol letter to form an emoji flag (for example, two letters together create the flag for the corresponding country/region). Because regional indicator letters are designed for sequences, the final displayed emoji depends on what letter you combine with 🇷. It’s commonly used in chat, social posts, and UI text where a flag symbol is needed via copy/paste.
