The glyph is a canonical version of the glyph Glyph for U+004BLatin Capital Letter K. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it is written from left to right. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+212A forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it. The glyph can be confused with one other glyph.
