U+02E6 Modifier Letter High Tone Bar

U+02E6 was added in Unicode version 1.1 in 1993. It belongs to the block U+02B0 to U+02FF Spacing Modifier Letters in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Modifier Symbol and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script.

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 not mirrored. The word that U+02E6 forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

Tone letters are letters that represent the tones of a language, most commonly in languages with contour tones.
