The zero-width space can be used to mark word breaks in languages without visible space between words, such as Thai, Myanmar, Khmer, and Japanese. [ 1 ] In justified text, the rendering engine may add inter-character spacing, also known as letter spacing, between letters separated by a zero-width space, unlike around fixed-width spaces.
In word processing and digital typesetting, a non-breaking space ( ), also called NBSP, required space, [1] hard space, or fixed space (in most typefaces, it is not of fixed width), is a space character that prevents an automatic line break at its position.
The zero-width space character has a higher breaking priority than the hyphen character (-), so when using it in a phrase with hyphen, it is recommended to place a zero-width space immediately after each hyphen as well. There are two ways to use this template: With no arguments, i.e. {{zwsp}}, this produces a single zero-width space character

The template {{zero width joiner}} inserts the code ‍, producing a U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER (‍) in the rendered wiki-page. This invisibly 'sews together' two words as if they were a single word, preventing their separation at line breaks. It acts as a {{no-break space}} except is immaterial and does not display on the page.
The word joiner replaces the zero-width no-break space (ZWNBSP, U+FEFF), as a usage of the no-break space of zero width. The ZWNBSP is originally and currently used as the byte order mark (BOM) at the start of a file. However, if encountered elsewhere, it should, according to Unicode, be treated as a word joiner, a no-break space of zero width.
TemplateData for Narrow no-break space Inserts a very thin "narrow non-breaking space" (NNBSP) unicode character, if no parameters are provided. If {{para|1}} is, that text is wrapped on each side with NNBSP's.
