粗左指尖引号装饰 ❮

Heavy Left-Pointing Angle Quotation Bracket forms a pair with a similar mark aiming to the right – ❯ . These symbols are rarely used in typography. There are only two main situations when they're applied: a missing text fragment or an editorial comments. Talking about missing sentences, a colon is put between the right and left parenthesis.

Despite the external similarity, this bracket differs from the mathematical sign 「less」 – < . It is made with a wide line and has a more noticeable opening angle.

符号 「粗左指尖引号装饰」 包含在 「印刷符号」 块的 「觀賞括號」 子块中，并在2002年作为Unicode版本3.2的一部分获得批准。
