What is an "interpunct"?

An interpunct (·) is a punctuation mark used to separate words or parts of a sentence, similar to a space or a period. It appears as a centered dot and is often found in certain writing systems or in the notation of foreign languages. For example, in some texts, an interpunct may be used to separate words in a phrase like "A·B·C," indicating distinct items. In addition to its function in text, the interpunct has historical significance, having been used in Latin and medieval manuscripts. It can also serve to enhance clarity in complex lists or technical writing by providing visual breaks between elements.
