U+204F "⁏" Reversed Semicolon Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+204F "⁏" Reversed Semicolon is a typographic punctuation mark included in the General Punctuation block, and as its name suggests, its glyph is a mirror image of the standard semicolon, with the dot placed above the comma instead of below. It is primarily used in ancient Greek and Coptic texts as a high stop, serving as a punctuation mark to indicate a break or division that is stronger than a comma but less final than a period. In modern contexts, it has also been employed as a stylistic or decorative alternative to the regular semicolon in certain typefaces or for specific design purposes, though it remains relatively obscure in mainstream writing.
