Small Comma ﹐

﹐ (U+FE50) 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: Small Comma is part of the Symbols family (block: Small Form Variants). 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 character depicts SMALL COMMA. It helps convey how a sentence flows and where a tiny pause should feel. First, use it in body text to structure sentences and to convey tone in subtle ways. Second, reference how it supports typographic nuance by showing a delicate separation between ideas or items. These uses follow from the idea that punctuation marks structure text and convey tone. Third, note that usage conventions differ by style and locale, so expectations vary across contexts. That variability means readers may see different spacing or placement depending on region and guide. The cross‑platform appearance is typically small and compact, and screen readers generally announce it as a brief pause for accessibility.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+FE50 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.
