U+2E27 "⸧" Right Sideways U Bracket is a typographic symbol classified under the Supplemental Punctuation block, primarily used to denote a sideways orientation of the standard U shaped bracket. It serves as a specialized delimiter in certain linguistic and editorial contexts, often employed to mark a specific kind of pause or grouping in phonetic transcription or to indicate a particular type of enclosure in annotated text.
