How to Use Character Tie
To use the Character Tie symbol (⁀) in HTML, insert the
entity ⁀ directly into your markup. The decimal entity ⁀ works in any HTML-serialised document.
In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\2040';.
In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u2040' evaluates to ⁀. In Python source, write '\u2040'.
The character encodes to E2 81 80 as UTF-8 bytes and 2040 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 8256.
This is a text-based Unicode character. It will render in the current font on most platforms. If a font lacks this glyph, the browser may show a placeholder or fall back to a system font.
