点
U+70B9 "点" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "dot," "point," or "spot," and it is widely used in both traditional and simplified Chinese writing as well as in Japanese kanji. It appears in common words like "地点" (place) and "点" itself as a measure word for small amounts. The character's composition includes the radical for "fire" (灬) at the bottom, which originally related to illumination or heat, though its modern core meaning focuses on discrete marks or moments.
