Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+0F12 "༒" Tibetan Mark Rgya Gram Shad is a typographic mark used in the Tibetan script, specifically functioning as a double vertical bar that serves as a punctuation symbol to indicate a major break or a significant section division in a text, akin to a period or a paragraph break. It is traditionally employed in religious and literary manuscripts to separate distinct passages, often marking the end of a chapter, a verse, or a particularly important statement, thereby enhancing the readability and structural clarity of written Tibetan. The character resides in the Tibetan block of the Unicode standard and is visually distinct from the simpler single shad symbol, reflecting its role as a more formal or emphatic divider within the script.
