    You mean its similarity to U+A75B LATIN SMALL LETTER R ROTUNDA?

    U+2011 NON-BREAKING HYPHEN, in conjuction with U+00AD SOFT HYPHEN, are
    *absolutely mandatory* to spell / typeset correct Portuguese. Users rely
    costumarily on specific software shortcuts (in MS Word: Shift-Ctrl-hyphen
    and Ctrl-hyphen, in InDesign: Shift-Alt-Ctrl-hyphen and Shift-Ctrl-hyphen,
    etc.).
