Pair (⍮) or Juxtapose is a primitive function equivalent to the dfn {⍺←,⊂ ⋄ ⍺ ⍵} which aids in constructing nested arrays during tacit programming where stranding by juxtaposition is not available. It is also equivalent to the catenation of the enclosed arguments, written ,⍥⊂ using Over[1]. It was introduced in Extended Dyalog APL, and then adopted into dzaima/APL. It was added to BQN with the glyph ⋈ in 2021.
Common usage
Its plain usage is in pairing up two parallel values:

└───────┴─────┘
It can also be combined with Mix to increase rank rather than depth:
