Meaning
A Japanese typographic mark consisting of a small angled dash with a dot, traditionally used in song lyrics and printed text to indicate where one singer's or performer's part begins and another's ends. In conversation it commonly signals a change of turn, a cue to start, or a shift in who is speaking or acting. It can also mark the start of a new section or segment. Because it is unfamiliar outside Japanese contexts, its meaning is often unclear to general audiences and may be mistaken for a decorative symbol.
