   • 2016 November 14, Rob Reed, “Everything You Need To Know About Emoji”, in Smashing Magazine‎, archived from the original on 12 February 2025:

     The zero-width joiner (ZWJ) has a code point but no corresponding symbol. It is used to connect two or more other Unicode code points to create a new "compound character" with a unique glyph all its own. […] I'm making a point of mentioning Ninja Cat because it is another example of the use of zero-width joiners.

2. A person who joins societies or organizations.
   • 2004, Eugene Goodheart, Confessions of a Secular Jew: A Memoir‎:

     I am not a joiner. I am reluctant to sign up as a member of any organization, because I generally can't find myself or my ideas in it.
