     According to the three linear branches of the bilinear function for a freeplay model, the phase space $X\in R^{8}$ can be divided into three regions, $R_{i}(i=1,2,3)$, where each corresponds to a linear system:

     $X'=AX+F_{1}$ in $R_{1}=\{X\in R^{8}|x_{1}<\alpha _{f}\}$

     Mármost a ragok és képzők többnyire kétalakúak, hogy a mély hangrendű szóhoz mélyet és magashoz magasat lehessen tenni. Ezért azt mondjuk, hogy kép | es | ség | ei | vel, illetve hogy ad | ós | ság | ai | val. Így nyilván mindenki ráismer erre a harmóniára.

     Now, the suffixes and derivational affixes generally have two forms, so that a low-vowel word can take a low-vowel suffix and a high-vowel word can take a high-vowel suffix. This is why we say "kép | es | ség | ei | vel" [with his/her abilities] and "ad | ós | ság | ai | val" [with his/her debts]. Thus, it is clear that everyone recognizes this harmony.

For IPA use, the symbol may be made heavy to distinguish it from the dental click ⟨ǀ⟩.

   • 2003 January 21, Jugoslav Dujic, “Re: Using common DLL routines...”, in comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32‎^[2] (Usenet; in English):

     | Thanks, Barry. I was able to achieve run time linking by using your example as
     | a model, although, 1) I don't entirely understand the use of typedef, etc.,
     | and,
     1) From the viewpoint of just occasional user of C(++): I think that syntax of pointers-to-functions is just plain ugly, tough to remember and tough to comprehend.

7. (Internet slang) In a title, separates related but distinct pieces of information.
