Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans Math Source: Browser Default

U+23DD "" Bottom Parenthesis is a typographic symbol classified under the Miscellaneous Technical block, designed to represent the lower half of a pair of parentheses used in technical or mathematical notation, particularly in contexts where a split or broken parenthesis is needed to enclose content from below. It is often employed in conjunction with its counterpart, U+23DC "⏜" Top Parenthesis, to create a complete parenthetical enclosure that spans vertically, such as in diagrams, editorial marks, or annotations where standard parentheses would be impractical. Visually resembling a broad, curved bracket opening upward, this character serves a niche but essential role in precise text formatting and specialized documentation.
