U+060C "،" Arabic Comma Unicode Character

U+060C "،" Arabic Comma is a punctuation mark used in the Arabic script and several other scripts derived from it, such as Persian, Urdu, and Sindhi, to separate clauses or items in a list, functioning similarly to the comma in Latin-based writing. Its glyph is a small, reversed comma (often resembling a mirror image of the standard comma) that aligns with the right-to-left direction of Arabic text, ensuring visual coherence within sentences. Unlike the Latin comma, it is coded separately to accommodate typographic traditions of the Arabic alphabet, where it appears distinct from its European counterpart in both shape and placement. This character is a fundamental part of Arabic writing systems, essential for clear and structured written communication.
