Downwards Harpoon With Barb Left Beside Downwards Harpoon With Barb Right Symbol Meaning
The symbol ⥥ (U+2965) is named “DOWNWARDS HARPOON WITH BARB LEFT BESIDE DOWNWARDS HARPOON WITH BARB RIGHT.” Visually, it represents two downward-directed harpoon strokes placed side by side: a harpoon with a barb on the left and another with a barb on the right. In practice, people use it to convey a “downward targeting” or “catch/anchor downward” idea, often in diagrams, iconography, labels, or stylized UI elements. It’s less about a specific standardized mathematical meaning and more about the clear directional, barbed “harpoon” visual cue.
