Dots that take your text colour
โ and โข are text characters, not emoji. They take the colour of the text around them, so set in red they are red dots at the size of your words. โซ, โช and โญ have a plain form too: switch to Text style, then copy. The font decides the look.

How this list was compiled: Built by script on 2026-09-19, not typed by hand. The emoji, their names, code points and Emoji version numbers come from emoji-test.txt, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt); names are the CLDR short names printed in that file, in sentence case. Ten emoji have circle in their names: nine coloured circles, which open Unicode's list of shape emoji with the red one first, and the hollow red circle, which is filed under other symbols. No emoji name and no search word holds red dot. Fifteen emoji have red in their names; the three people with red hair are left off this page. The search words are from the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml and https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotationsDerived/en.xml, main branch). CLDR lists red for eight emoji that are not red by name and red-faced for the hot face, and it lists circle for the wheel, the record button and the circled M. The text forms come from emoji-variation-sequences.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/emoji/emoji-variation-sequences.txt). Every character that is not an emoji was checked against UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt), and a note that names a character uses its name from that file. Notes about what a character is used for come from the annotations in NamesList.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/NamesList.txt). The 18 text circles and dots have no line in emoji-test.txt, so they are text characters and not emoji. Their short names on the tiles are our own; each note gives the Unicode name. The order of a traffic light (red to stop, amber for a change, green to go) comes from the Wikipedia article Traffic light, read as wikitext on 2026-09-20 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_light?action=raw); the build script checks the sentence it leans on. The 12 rows and labels are this site's own arrangements of those characters, and their names are our own. All sources were checked on 2026-09-19. Licence: own work
