U+061F "؟" Arabic Question Mark is a punctuation mark used in the Arabic script and several other languages that employ the Arabic alphabet, such as Persian and Urdu. Unlike the Latin question mark, which is placed at the end of a sentence, the Arabic question mark is mirrored horizontally, appearing as a reversed or left to right version of its Western counterpart, reflecting the right to left direction of Arabic text. It serves the same grammatical function as a standard question mark, indicating a direct question, and was included in Unicode to ensure proper representation and rendering of Arabic text in digital environments.
