"The play symbol is one of the world’s most recognisable icons. Across
languages, writing systems, and cultures, a single right-pointing triangle is
widely understood as “start”.
Yet there’s nothing about this simple geometric icon that inherently suggests
the start of something. So why does it carry this meaning?
The emergence of such universal media symbols is relatively recent in design
history."
