The Braille pattern dots-235 ( ⠖ ) is a 6-dot braille cell with dots raised, or an 8-dot braille cell with raised. It is represented by the Unicode code point U+2816, and in Braille ASCII with the number 6.
In unified international braille, the braille pattern dots-235 is used to represent an exclamation point, other punctuation, and otherwise assigned as needed.[1]
Related to Braille pattern dots-235 are Braille patterns 2357, 2358, and 23578, which are used in 8-dot braille systems, such as Gardner-Salinas and Luxembourgish Braille.
In the Japanese kantenji braille, the standard 8-dot Braille patterns 367, 1367, 3467, and 13467 are the patterns related to Braille pattern dots-235, since the two additional dots of kantenji patterns 0235, 2357, and 02357 are placed above the base 6-dot cell, instead of below, as in standard 8-dot braille.
