digit six full stop

Digit Six Full Stop

⒍ is a numbered list marker for item six; the full stop is built into the same character as the 6. It suits compact outlines and labels. Compatibility normalization can split it into the ordinary two-character form <code>6.</code>.

What ⒍ means

It marks the sixth place in a list or outline. The full stop belongs to the marker, so it sits before the item text rather than ending the preceding sentence.

The wider family of enclosed letters and numbers served compact lists and bullets. A 1999 Japanese standards proposal also linked larger enclosed-number sets to laws and regulations prepared for computer processing.

Use ⒍ as a list marker

It works at the start of an outline step or a short label. In longer text, the ordinary 6. lets you edit the number and following punctuation separately.

Compact and formal; it reads as numbering or document structure.
