What is a "dot"?

A dot (·) is a small round punctuation mark used in various ways in writing and typography. It is commonly used to indicate a decimal point in numbers, such as in "3.14," where it separates the whole number from the fractional part. Dots can also serve as bullet points in lists, representing individual items, or as a part of ellipses (… ) to indicate omitted text. In some contexts, dots are used in abbreviations or to signify pauses in speech. Their simplicity and versatility make dots an important element in written communication.

dot definition and meaning

What is a "dot"?

In music, a dot is a symbol placed immediately after a note or rest that extends its duration by half of its original value. For example, if a dot is added to a half note, which normally lasts for two beats, it becomes a dotted half note that lasts for three beats. The dot extends the length of the note, making it longer than it would be without the dot. This helps to create varied rhythms and add complexity to musical compositions.
