Writers choose this mark for certain languages and publishing rules. The character name and code help editors and readers identify it. The usage can change with time and with different publishing standards. It is important to be consistent when you pick a quotation style.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+301E in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
