tittle
Dot above i
A tittle is the small dot or diacritical mark on a letter, most familiarly the dot over a lowercase i or j.
The word survives mainly in the phrase jot and tittle, meaning every small detail, where jot refers to the smallest letter of the Hebrew alphabet.
To attend to every jot and tittle is to be meticulous about the finest points.
