Zero-Width Non-Joiner
Also known as Nim fāseleh, Fāseleh-ye majāzi, Fāseleh-ye sefr, Pseudo-space.
It's wrong to use SPACE in the middle of a word to break the joining. You should use ZWNJ in this cases.
- You can type this character by pressing:
- Windows: Shift+B
- Linux: Shift+Space or Shift+B
Correct form with ZWNJ: میخواهم Incorrect (with space): می خواهم Incorrect (joined) : میخواهم
