The Braille pattern dots-56 ( ⠰ ) is a 6-dot braille cell with the middle and bottom right dots raised, or an 8-dot braille cell with the upper-middle and lower-middle right dots raised. It is represented by the Unicode code point U+2830, and in Braille ASCII with a semicolon: ;.
Related to Braille pattern dots-56 are Braille patterns 567, 568, and 5678, 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 68, 168, 468, and 1468 are the patterns related to Braille pattern dots-56, since the two additional dots of kantenji patterns 056, 567, and 0567 are placed above the base 6-dot cell, instead of below, as in standard 8-dot braille.
