Bottom Right Half Bracket ⸥
⸥ (U+2E25) 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: Bottom Right Half Bracket is part of the Symbols family (block: Supplemental Punctuation). 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 Bottom Right Half Bracket is a punctuation mark in the Supplemental Punctuation block, encoded as U+2E25. It is a right half of a bracket pair that can appear in certain typographic and encoding schemes. In use, it helps to delimit content by acting as the closing piece of a group, parameter list, or quoted text in writing and code. This symbol is chosen for its distinct shape and its compatibility with other half brackets in mixed text layouts. Writers and programmers may rely on it when a full bracket is not available in the font, or when a special typographic effect is desired. The pairing with its corresponding left half bracket allows readers to see where a section begins and ends, even in vertical or compact text arrangements. In practice, it supports clear syntax that marks boundaries without introducing extra characters. Its role remains consistent across contexts where half brackets convey the end of a quoted or grouped segment. Overall, this character serves as a precise visual cue for grouping in both prose and code.)
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+2E25 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.

Compatibility & troubleshooting

Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
