What 🈷️ Japanese “monthly amount” button means
Squared letter and word buttons, most of them inherited wholesale from Japanese carrier emoji and never rethought since. 🆒, 🆕, 🆓 and 🆗 still see use as labels, and 🆘 is read as a genuine call for help. 🅰️, 🅱️, 🅾️ and 🆎 are blood-type buttons, a category that matters in Japan, where blood type is discussed the way star signs are elsewhere.
