Top Right Half Bracket Symbol Meaning
⸣ (TOP RIGHT HALF BRACKET, U+2E23) is a punctuation mark shaped like a bracket segment, showing the top-right half rather than a full pair of brackets. Because it represents only a portion of a bracket, it’s often used in designs where bracket corners must align with other typographic elements, such as annotations, callout frames, or decorative separators. As a Unicode character, it can be reliably inserted into documents, web text, and programming environments using standard copy/paste or escape sequences. It does not function as a mathematical operator by itself; its value is primarily visual and typographic.
Common uses
- •Adding decorative corner brackets in posters, covers, and layout headers
- •Formatting callouts or quoted text blocks with custom bracket styling
- •Designing UI labels or badges that need partial bracket shapes
- •Creating typographic separators in editorial mockups and templates
- •Using the character in accessible text content for consistent visuals
