What does . mean?

It is used for several purposes, the most frequent of which is to mark the end of a declaratory sentence. (why are we doing this?)

I thought English uses PERIOD to verbally mark the end of a declaratory sentence, not DOT. That's probably where the confusion comes from.

Thanks, I thought it was some acronym.
