ℹ️ About
The U+02BB modifier is a spacing letter primarily used as the ʻOkina in Polynesian languages (Hawaiian, Tongan) to represent a glottal stop. Unlike a standard single quote, it is technically a letter, meaning it doesn’t break words and is used in alphabetic sorting.
⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ‘ (U+2018 Left Single Quotation Mark).
