Dagesh Forte is a Hebrew term that refers to a dot or point added to a letter within the Hebrew language to emphasize its sound. While there is no exact synonym for this term, there are similar concepts within other languages. For example, in Arabic, a hamza is a diacritical marking placed on a letter to indicate its pronunciation. In Hindi, a bindi is a dot commonly used on the forehead, but can also be added to letters to denote their pronunciation. In Devanagari, a script used for several South Asian languages, certain letters can be marked with a dot called a nukta to differentiate their pronunciation.
