U+17D5 "៕" Khmer Sign Bariyoosan is a punctuation mark used in the Khmer script to indicate the end of a stanza or a significant section of text, functioning similarly to a paragraph break or a more emphatic period in written Khmer. Its name, Bariyoosan, derives from a Khmer term meaning "end of a section" or "conclusion," and it visually resembles a pair of small stacked circles or dots, distinguishing it from other Khmer punctuation like the single dot used for a full stop. This sign is an integral part of traditional Khmer typography and is still employed in modern digital text to maintain structural clarity in poetry, religious texts, and formal writing.
