If you have any questions about this kanji, or would like to write a sample sentence using it, please do so below. Your comment will appear in the forum for other users of the site to view and discuss.

The official name for it is (どう)()()(てん), but it is also commonly called ノマ(noma), or ノマ点 because its resemblance to those two Katakana characters.

Note, it is not considered a Kanji character, but an iteration mark.

As such, it has no readings, it just repeats the sound of the character preceding it.

If you want to type it on your phone or computer, you can try typing  おなじ, どう, or くりかえし and then converting. It should appear as one of the options.
