The text is cut to length without considering the multi-byte encoding. Most likely your strings are stored in UTF-8, and cropping is done by length in bytes. As a result, the last character loses one or two bytes, and the placeholder symbol is displayed instead.

You should rewrite the trim function so that it takes into account multibyte characters, for example using the functions mb_substr() or iconv_substr()
