Kanbun
Info · Characters
The Kanbun Unicode block provides symbols that instruct readers on Japanese word order and grammar when reading Chinese texts, supporting traditional scholarly practices in Japan.
Kanbun is a Unicode block containing annotation characters used in Japanese copies (kanbun) of Classical Chinese texts, to indicate reading order. Its block name in Unicode 1.0 was CJK Miscellaneous, and its code point range was defined differently, including the then-unallocated space now occupied by Bopomofo Extended, CJK Strokes and Katakana Phonetic Extensions.
