Zero-width space. The zero-width space (ZWSP) is a non-printing character used in computerized typesetting to indicate where the word boundaries are, without actually displaying a visible space in the rendered text.

Without proper rendering support, you may see question marks, boxes, or other symbols instead of Braille characters. The Braille pattern dots-0 ( ⠀ ), also called a blank Braille pattern, is a 6-dot or 8-dot braille cell with no dots raised. It is represented by the Unicode code point U+2800, and in Braille ASCII with a space.
Left-to-right mark. The left-to-right mark (LRM) is a control character (an invisible formatting character) used in computerized typesetting of text containing a mix of left-to-right scripts (such as Latin and Cyrillic) and right-to-left scripts (such as Arabic, Syriac, and Hebrew). It is used to set the way adjacent characters are grouped with ...
