Unicode Version 17.0
⃠
U+20E0 "⃠" Combining Enclosing Circle Backslash is a combining diacritical mark designed to overlay a preceding character, typically to create a prohibition or negation symbol, such as the "no" sign used in international pictograms. It is most commonly applied to the letter "P" to form the standard no parking symbol, or to other characters to indicate a forbidden action or item. This numeric entry belongs to the Combining Diacritical Marks for Symbols block and is intended for use in typographic and graphical contexts where a circled diagonal slash needs to appear as a single combined glyph.
