The Unicode characters behind cursive G

โ„Š takes one UTF-16 unit, because it is in the Letterlike Symbols block, below U+10000. The other characters in this table are in the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, above U+FFFF, and take two.

Where โ„Š comes from

โ„Š is U+210A SCRIPT SMALL G. It has been in Unicode since version 1.1, in the Letterlike Symbols block. Unicode gives it the alias โ€œreal number symbolโ€.

The Mathematical Script alphabet was added in Unicode 3.1. Its position for small g, U+1D4BC, is reserved and cross-referenced to โ„Š instead of holding a character of its own, so the Unicode data sends that position to โ„Š.

Because โ„Š sits in a different Unicode block from ๐’ป and ๐’ฝ (Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols), a font can design it separately, and how closely they match depends on the font. โ„Š takes one UTF-16 unit where ๐’ป takes two. The Mathematical Bold Script alphabet has no gap at this letter: ๐“ฐ is U+1D4F0, in sequence with ๐“ฏ and ๐“ฑ.

Why a look-alike is not a harmless swap

ษก has โ€œscriptโ€ in its Unicode name, โ€œLATIN SMALL LETTER SCRIPT Gโ€, which makes it easy to mistake for a cursive g. The cursive g this site produces is โ„Š, U+210A.
