Some unicode characters are not displaying correctly on terminal

Some of the unicode characters are not displaying in the terminal basically on neovim and I also encountered these types of errors in notification area even sometime in the browsers some characters are not loading.

Sample picture

Then, I tried this command

 FC_DEBUG=4 pango-view --font="sans" -t ? | grep family:

After executing this command, a pop-up window of question mark appeared Another sample picture

what do I do to fix this issue??

I use **sans regular** as my default font and for the terminal I use ** Dejavu sans mono**.

That looks more like a locale issue,

localectl
locale
locale -a

What's the utf-8 codepoint you're trying to display?

If you issued the literal "?" the pango-view result isn't surprising, that's supposed to be a non-functional utf-8 glyph (but the forum BBS sometimes eats them and replaces them w/ a question mark)
