Strikethrough Text

Where these characters come from

This works differently from every mapped alphabet on the site. Rather than swapping letters, it appends a combining long stroke to each character. The letters stay exactly what they were; each one simply carries an extra mark.

Worth knowing before you use them

Because the line is a separate combining mark, some apps strip it on paste or render it slightly offset. Copy and check in the destination before relying on it.

Where this family earns its place

Strikethrough is genuinely functional rather than decorative: showing a corrected price, a crossed-off task, a revised statement. That makes it one of the few styles here with a job to do. Because the effect relies on combining marks that some apps discard, always paste into the destination and confirm the line survived before publishing.

Every style here, and how each one works

The method matters more than the name: it determines whether your letters are replaced, recased or merely marked, and that in turn decides how the result behaves when pasted into a field that validates its input.
