Similar punctuation is not interchangeable

Hyphens, minus signs, en dashes and em dashes have different jobs. Straight and curly quotation marks also differ, as do punctuation marks that belong to different languages or writing directions.

Choose by grammatical function and language, not just by shape. The symbol page’s Unicode name and code point help distinguish characters that a font may draw almost alike.
