  Interpunct - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Taiwanese dot above right (indicating a more open vowel) is often expressed as a Unicode middle dot, as the necessary combining character was not codified prior to June 2004; historically, it was derived in the late 19th century from an older barred-o with curly tail as an adaptation to the typewriter.
In Japanese typography, the "katakana middle dot" (as the Unicode consortium calls it) has a fixed width that is the same as most kana characters, known as fullwidth.
In the Shavian alphabet, the middle dot is used before a word to denote it as a proper noun.

MIDDLE DOT might impact line break decisions, depending on the implementation); secondly, the properties of the characters in the sequence <006C, 00B7> are distinct from those for <0140> by itself, and may impact things such as identifier parsing, again, depending on an implementation.
Catalan usual orthography uses a regular middle dot to separate two “L”s in those cases where they are pronounced as a single one, doubled only for etymological reasons.
This dot is not connected to the previous "L" in any way, as if it were some kind of diacritical.
