U+0592 "֒" Hebrew Accent Segol is a diacritical mark used in Biblical Hebrew as part of the Tiberian system of cantillation, primarily functioning as a disjunctive accent that indicates a pause or break in the reading of the text. It appears below the consonant of a stressed syllable and is associated with a specific melodic pattern in traditional chanting. The segol accent is distinct from the vowel segol, though they share the same dot-like shape, and it helps to structure the syntax and emphasis of scriptural verses. Its proper placement and pronunciation are essential for accurate liturgical recitation according to Masoretic traditions.
