Technical Classification & Regex Reference

Normative Classification Semantics

In the Unicode Character Database, General_Category is the primary normative classification assigned to every code point. As noted in Unicode Standard Annex #44, this property reflects a character’s primary linguistic or functional usage, but does not capture every contextual use in real-world typography.

Regular Expression Matching

In modern regular expression engines (PCRE, Python, ECMAScript, Java, Rust, .NET), match characters belonging to this category with:

\p{P} // Matches any Punctuation
