Right White Corner Bracket

15/61

』 closes 『』, the double corner brackets among Japanese quotation marks: they mark a quote nested inside another quote, or the title of a book or film. If it appears alone, look back for 『 — it marks a boundary, not a mood.

Text symbol

What 』 means

It ends a quote or title opened with 『. Japanese frames an outer quote with 「」 and puts a quote inside it in 『』.

Chinese rules differ: Taiwan also uses 「」 outside and 『』 inside, and Mainland Chinese vertical writing uses corner marks too, so there 』 does not signal a title.

Japanese quotation marks are documented in fiction dialogue by the 1880s, separating speech from narration. That dates the convention, not this exact double form.

Why does 』 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
