U+2B91 "⮑" Return Right Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+2B91 "⮑" Return Right is a typographic symbol found in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block, primarily used to represent a carriage return or line break action in computing and interface design, where its clockwise, rightward arrow with a vertical stem visually indicates the movement of a cursor or text returning to the beginning of a line or to a margin. Unlike the more common leftward return arrow (↵), this symbol conveys the same concept with a rightward direction, often appearing in graphical interfaces, documentation, or encoding contexts where a distinct visual signpost for a new line or paragraph break is needed. Its design, resembling a bent arrow curving back to the right, provides a clear, intuitive cue for editorial and programming workflows, bridging the gap between textual command and visual feedback.
