U+FE68 "" Small Reverse Solidus Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+FE68 "" Small Reverse Solidus is a typographic variant of the standard backslash (U+005C), designed as a smaller, narrower glyph for use in contexts where space or visual harmony is prioritized, such as in East Asian fonts or within small text environments. It belongs to the Small Form Variants block, which provides compact versions of common punctuation and symbols to align with the proportions of CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) characters. While visually similar to the regular reverse solidus, this character is distinct in Unicode and may render differently across applications, often employed in typesetting or coding displays where a less obtrusive backslash is desired.
