波浪号（～）是什么意思，正规的用法是什么？

摘自 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D

There are several similar, related characters:
  • SWUNG DASH ⁓ (U+2053) used in Western typography and lexicography. In HTML this character can be expressed solely in numeric form (⁓ or ⁓).
  • TILDE OPERATOR ∼ (U+223C) used in mathematics. In TeX and LaTeX this character can be expressed using the math mode command ($\sim$).
  • WAVE DASH 〜 (U+301C) used in East Asian typography for a variety of purposes, including Japanese punctuation.
  • FULLWIDTH TILDE ～ (U+FF5E) also, and more commonly, used in East Asian typography.


题目中写的是U+FF5E这个符号，除了在字典中做代替符号，它最常见的用途是表示范围的连接符，比如

曾文正公享年六十二歲（西元1811～1872年）。
