U+00BB Right-Pointing Double Angle Quotation Mark
U+00BB was added in Unicode version 1.1 in 1993. It belongs to the block Latin-1 Supplement in the Basic Multilingual Plane.
This character is a Final Punctuation and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script. The character is also known as right guillemet.
The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it acts as Other Neutral. When changing direction it is mirrored into Left-Pointing Double Angle Quotation Mark. U+00BB prohibits a line break around it.
The CLDR project calls this character “right guillemet” for use in screen reading software. It assigns these additional labels, e.g. for search in emoji pickers: angle, brackets, carets, chevron, guillemet, quote, right.
The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
Guillemets (, also UK: , US: , French: [ɡijəmɛ]) are a pair of punctuation marks in the form of sideways double chevrons, « and », used as quotation marks in a number of languages. In some of these languages, "single" guillemets, ‹ and ›, are used for a quotation inside another quotation. Guillemets are not conventionally used in English.
