Unicode Version 17.0
⸃
U+2E03 "⸃" Right Substitution Bracket is a typographic symbol classified under the Supplemental Punctuation block, designed to mark the end of a substituted portion of text in scholarly or editorial contexts. It pairs with its counterpart, the Left Substitution Bracket (U+2E02), to enclose words or phrases that have been replaced within a quotation or manuscript, often to indicate a modernized spelling or a correction made by an editor. This bracket is distinct from regular parentheses or brackets in its specific functional role, appearing in academic works, critical editions, and historical text transcriptions to clarify interventions without altering the original content.
