Dotless

/ˈdɒtləs/ adjective

Definition

Lacking dots or periods; without markings or punctuation points.

Etymology

From 'dot' + '-less' (suffix meaning 'without'). Simple negation following standard English word formation.

Kelly Says

Arabic and Hebrew actually have dotless versions of their letters that are used without diacritical marks, so 'dotless' is a real concern in typography and linguistics.
