Meaning & usage
Circle right half black (◑) adds a geometric marker to text.
Use it as a bullet, legend marker or decorative accent; contrast and size affect whether its outline remains legible.
The circle right half black is a filled design. U+25D1 keeps this variant separate from similarly shaped characters, so compare neighboring forms before choosing it for a repeating pattern.
circle right half black occupies one Unicode code point. A similar-looking letter, punctuation mark or emoji is not necessarily interchangeable with ◑ in search, filenames or text processing.
