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. [1]
A second common application of non-breaking spaces is in plain text file formats such as SGML, HTML, TeX and LaTeX, whose rendering engines are programmed to treat sequences of whitespace characters (space, newline, tab, form feed, etc.) as if they were a single character (but this behavior can be overridden).
A narrow space character, used in Mongolian to cause the final two characters of a word to take on different shapes. [6] It is no longer classified as space character (i.e. in Zs category) in Unicode 6.3.0, even though it was in previous versions of the standard. zero width space: U+200B: 8203 Yes: No ? General Punctuation: Other, Format ZWSP ...
When the য-ফলা shape needs to be retained rather than the রেফ shape, the ZWJ U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER (‍) is inserted right after র, i.e., র‍্য to render র্য. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] র্য is commonly used for loanwords from English such as র্যাম (RAM), র্যান্ডম (random) etc.
1.3 Copy and paste. ... usually next to the 0 (zero) key, will produce a hyphen-minus. Methods of producing the other characters are described below. ... (with a non ...
HTML and XML provide ways to reference Unicode characters when the characters themselves either cannot or should not be used. A numeric character reference refers to a character by its Universal Character Set/Unicode code point, and a character entity reference refers to a character by a predefined name.
In all braille systems, the braille pattern dots-0 is used to represent a space or the lack of content. [1] In particular some fonts display the character as a fixed-width blank. However, the Unicode standard explicitly states that it does not act as a space, [ 2 ] a statement added in response to a comment that it should be treated as a space.
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.
