How To Get Zwj (zero-width Joiner) Entity To Work With Japanese Characters?

Is there any way to get the zero-width joiner character (‍ / ‍ / ‍) to work with Japanese characters? Or is there a similar solution that doesn't invol

Solution 1:

ZWJ doesn't do what you want, zero-width joiner works only on "complex scripts" like Arabic, it doesn't just hold the characters side by side, it actually joins the shapes.

I think the best and cleanest way to do this is exactly to wrap any multi-character word you don't want to break in a nowrap span.

Also something to consider is that no robot expects some weird character be in the middle of any two characters so if your pages are going to be online no search engine will be able to read them.
