HTML Entity for Does Not Contain As Normal Subgroup Or Equal (⋭)
What You'll Learn
How to display the Does Not Contain As Normal Subgroup Or Equal symbol (⋭) in HTML using named, hexadecimal, decimal, and CSS entity methods. This character is U+22ED in the Mathematical Operators block (U+2200–U+22FF) and expresses the “or equal” negation of normal-subgroup containment in group theory.
Render it with the named entity ⋭, ⋭, ⋭, or CSS escape \22ED. For the strict relation (⋫), see Does Not Contain As Normal Subgroup (⋫).

This example demonstrates the symbol (⋭) using hexadecimal code, decimal HTML code, the named entity, and a CSS content escape on a pseudo-element:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
#point:after{
content: "\22ED";
}

🧠 How It Works
Named Entity
⋭ is the HTML named entity for the or-equal variant — note the final e distinguishes it from ⋫ (strict).
Hexadecimal Code
⋭ uses the Unicode hexadecimal value 22ED. The x prefix indicates hexadecimal format.
Decimal HTML Code
⋭ uses the decimal Unicode value 8941 to display the same character.
CSS Entity
\22ED is used in CSS stylesheets, particularly in the content property of pseudo-elements like ::before and ::after.
Same visual result
All four methods produce: ⋭. Unicode U+22ED is the or-equal relation. For strict ⋫, see Does Not Contain As Normal Subgroup (⋫).
Use Cases
The symbol (⋭) commonly appears in the following scenarios:
Or-equal negation when G neither contains H as normal subgroup nor equals H.
Papers and textbooks distinguishing strict vs. or-equal relations.
University algebra courses teaching normal subgroup notation.
Mathematical Operators lists and HTML entity guides.
Web math content needing the correct or-equal Unicode glyph.

💡 Best Practices
Do
- Use
⋭for the or-equal variant (not⋫) - Link to the strict page (⋫) when readers need
⋫ - Use fonts that cover Mathematical Operators (U+2200–U+22FF)
- Pair with text, MathML, or ARIA for accessibility
- Pick one entity style per project for consistency
Don’t
- Swap
⋫and⋭(different code points) - Use ⋭ when the strict relation ⋫ is intended
- Use CSS escape
\22EDinside HTML markup - Mix hex, decimal, and named styles randomly in one file
- Rely on the symbol alone without accessible description
