Source: Browser Default
U+1368 "፨" Ethiopic Paragraph Separator is a typographic mark used in the Geʽez script, primarily to denote the end of a paragraph or a major section break in traditional Ethiopic texts. Resembling three dots or small circles stacked vertically, this symbol helps organize written works in languages such as Amharic, Tigrinya, and Geʽez itself, providing a clear visual cue for readers that a new thematic unit is beginning. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures that digital representations of these ancient and modern texts maintain proper formatting and fidelity to their original punctuation conventions.
