Mongolian Comma ᠂
᠂ (U+1802) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Mongolian Comma is part of the Symbols family (block: Mongolian). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: MONGOLIAN COMMA (U+1802) is a punctuation mark in the Mongolian block. It helps separate parts of text and marks pauses. The Mongolian script uses this comma to structure lines and phrases. In practice, the symbol guides readers as they move through sentences. The way it looks and where it is placed can differ from other scripts. Usage conventions differ by style and locale. This means editors and writers may choose slightly different rules for spacing, clustering, and tone. The history of the character shows how writing systems adapt to new paper and printing methods. As people standardize Mongolian text, the comma helps in clear reading and consistent rhythm. It remains a small but useful tool to clarify meaning. Readers expect that pause and separation will follow the same basic cue across texts. The universal goal is legibility and tone, not decoration or complexity. In all cases, the Mongolian comma supports structure and flow within the language.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1802 in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
