The zero-width space can be used to mark word breaks in languages without visible space between words, such as Thai, Myanmar, Khmer, and Japanese. [ 1 ] In justified text, the rendering engine may add inter-character spacing, also known as letter spacing, between letters separated by a zero-width space, unlike around fixed-width spaces.
The zero-width space character has a higher breaking priority than the hyphen character (-), so when using it in a phrase with hyphen, it is recommended to place a zero-width space immediately after each hyphen as well. There are two ways to use this template: With no arguments, i.e. {{zwsp}}, this produces a single zero-width space character
This is a convenience template for the zero-width, optional-whitespace character, U+200C ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER (‌). It is completely invisible in display, but has the effect of acting as a breaking point at an otherwise non-breaking situation, e.g. within continuous text inside a word that otherwise would possibly break.
Unicode's U+FEFF ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE character can be inserted at the beginning of a Unicode text to signal its endianness: a program reading such a text and encountering 0xFFFE would then know that it should switch the byte order for all the following characters. Its block name in Unicode 1.0 was Special. [5]
The template {{zero width joiner}} inserts the code ‍, producing a U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER (‍) in the rendered wiki-page. This invisibly 'sews together' two words as if they were a single word, preventing their separation at line breaks. It acts as a {{no-break space}} except is immaterial and does not display on the page.
This is the template test cases page for the sandbox of Template:Zero width space Purge this page to update the examples. If there are many examples of a complicated template, later ones may break due to limits in MediaWiki ; see the HTML comment " NewPP limit report " in the rendered page.
The word joiner replaces the zero-width no-break space (ZWNBSP, U+FEFF), as a usage of the no-break space of zero width. The ZWNBSP is originally and currently used as the byte order mark (BOM) at the start of a file. However, if encountered elsewhere, it should, according to Unicode, be treated as a word joiner, a no-break space of zero width.
When the য-ফলা shape needs to be retained rather than the রেফ shape, the ZWJ U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER (‍) is inserted right after র, i.e., র‍্য to render র্য. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] র্য is commonly used for loanwords from English such as র্যাম (RAM), র্যান্ডম (random) etc.
