Superset of Above Not Equal To ⫌
⫌ (U+2ACC) 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: Superset of Above Not Equal To is part of the Symbols family (block: Supplemental Mathematical Operators). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: The symbol SUPERSET OF ABOVE NOT EQUAL TO has codepoint U+2ACC and belongs to the Supplemental Mathematical Operators block. In plain terms, its name describes a relation between sets. It is used when one set is being compared with another, and the relation is not that the first is a proper superset of the second. In mathematics, such symbols help express precise statements about membership and inclusion. The form is part of a larger family of symbols that show how sets relate to each other. In practice, authors use it in formulas to indicate that the superset relation does not hold. In user interfaces and documents, these symbols aid quick understanding without words. The character appears in formulas where multiple sets are described, and the exact symbol makes the statement shorter and clearer than longer text. The common math symbols, including this one, indicate operations or comparisons in formulas and user interfaces. This history reflects how math notation evolved to cover many nuanced relations with a compact mark.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+2ACC 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.

How to type / insert
Fast copy: click the Copy button near the top of this page.
By codepoint: in many editors and IDEs, you can insert via the Unicode code U+2ACC or a built‑in character picker.
HTML: use the numeric entity ⫌ (hex) or ⫌ (decimal) when an HTML entity is needed.
Compatibility & troubleshooting
Font support: if the symbol does not render, the current font likely lacks this codepoint. Choose a font with broad Unicode coverage or allow a fallback font.
Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
