Source: Noto Sans Source: Browser Default

U+2E3C "" Stenographic Full Stop is a punctuation mark used primarily in stenography and shorthand writing systems, where it functions as a compact equivalent of a regular full stop or period. Unlike the standard period, which is a small dot, this character is designed specifically for rapid handwritten or machine-encoded shorthand notation, helping to clearly mark the end of a sentence or abbreviation in specialized transcription contexts. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that stenographers and researchers can accurately represent and exchange digital text containing this unique symbol without relying on visual approximations or font-dependent characters.
