U+2E0D "⸍" Right Raised Omission Bracket Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+2E0D "⸍" Right Raised Omission Bracket is a typographic mark used primarily in textual criticism and scholarly editing to indicate that a portion of text has been omitted, typically in transcribed or quoted material. It is characterized by its raised, rightward-facing curved shape, which sets it apart from more common omission indicators like ellipses or brackets. This character belongs to the Supplemental Punctuation block and is often employed in ancient or medieval manuscript studies where precise notation of textual gaps is required. Its design allows it to be placed above the baseline without interrupting the flow of surrounding characters.
