The Art of Crossing Out

Diagonal slashes (also called diagonal strikethrough) use the Unicode combining character U+0338. Unlike horizontal strikethrough which draws a line through the middle, diagonal slashes go from top-left to bottom-right, creating a "forbidden" or "cancelled" appearance.

This effect is commonly used to show that something is wrong, outdated, or not allowed. It's more emphatic than regular strikethrough and carries a stronger "no" or "cancel" connotation.

When to Use Slash Text

  • Showing price reductions (C̸$̸9̸9̸ → $49)
  • Indicating canceled events or sold-out items
  • Creating "not allowed" or "forbidden" text
  • Making corrections in a visible way

For a regular horizontal strikethrough, use the strikethrough option in our Fancy Text Generator.
