Line Break - Conditional Japanese Starter
Conditional Japanese Starter is a line break classification used for certain small Japanese kana characters, such as the dakuten and handakuten marks, which attach to the preceding character. It indicates that a line break is permitted only when these characters are followed by a specific set of characters, typically a lowercase or small kana, based on contextual rules. This value ensures that such combinations are kept together on one line when possible, while still allowing breaks in other positions, thereby preserving the natural reading rhythm and visual integrity of Japanese text. The rule prioritizes preventing awkward breaks after these marks unless the following character explicitly allows it, which helps maintain proper orthographic conventions.
