Translingual
Although the character itself is written with a slanting 丶 dot in the Kangxi dictionary, most of its derived characters in the Ming typeface used in Japanese Kanji, Korean Hanja as well as the Kangxi dictionary uses a vertical dot for the upper component of 亠. This is slightly different from modern Chinese scripts, which use a slanting 丶 dot for the upper component of 亠 in its derived characters.
