Union With Overbar Symbol Meaning

⩂ (Unicode name: “UNION WITH OVERBAR”, U+2A42) is a mathematical symbol that combines a union mark with an overbar. In practice, it’s used to indicate a union operation while applying a distinct visual style—often to match a particular convention in textbooks, papers, or custom notation systems. Because overbars frequently appear in formal mathematics to distinguish variants or derived operations, ⩂ is typically chosen when a plain union symbol is not sufficient. Use it wherever your document or design needs exactly this overlined union glyph rather than a similar-looking character.

Common uses

  • Representing an overlined union in mathematical set notation
  • Labeling operations in diagrams, proofs, or algorithms that use styled unions
  • Typesetting in notes or educational materials that follow a specific notation convention
  • Creating consistent typography in math-heavy UI or dashboards
  • Using a precise glyph in scientific writing where symbol variants matter
