Yeah, a caret is also using in mathematics to indicate the next number is an exponent for the previous number(s), whereas a circumflex is used for French and other languages, commonly where an S used to be in a word i.e. hôpital

The three least-guessed answers: interrobang, dagger, and guillemet. I've also studied Spanish and don't recall ever seeing a guillemet before. Daggers I have seen used as markers for footnotes similar to asterisks or superscript numbers, just didn't know what they were called. Interrobang I had never heard of nor seen before.

I actually use the interrobang all the time in SMSs and emails - though, I've had to create shortcuts for them, because they're not ordinary punctuation.

Dagger I just knew, don't know why. But, guillemet I only knew because I speak French. No idea they were used in English also.

Dagger is nearly as common as bullet, (no pun intented hah, only just notice it..) or asterisks, both the interpunction itself as the word for it. But I have never heard of the word guillemets either though I know the interpunction itself. And never seen or heard of interrobang either.

And I had never heard of ellipsis. I have no idea what the term in my own language is either (I tried dotdotdog gahah)

It's used in Catalan to distinguish between ll (which sounds like "LY" as in million) and l·l (which sounds like double "L"). The word for collection, col·leció, has an interpunct.

Also, only in the United States and possibly Canada is { a brace. In the UK and Australia it's called a curly bracket.

QM, can you add about or approximate for ~? Technically it's only a tilde if it's over a letter (I think?), which that symbol doesn't do when you type it out. Even if it is still a tilde, it's also used to say that a number you've put is approximate, not definite.

Although 'slash' is commonly used in the UK these days (mainly in the giving out of email addresses) I continue to prefer to use oblique, as 'slash' is UK English slang for urinate (as in "I need a slash"). I believe 'Solidus' is a more formal term that can also be employed.

Those of us who can remember dictation as an activity in French classes might remember "Ouvrez les guillemets" as an instruction the teacher gives when asking students to open speech marks.

It's not really standard usage. But if we are going to coin a new word for it, I prefer strudel.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At_sign

"The fact that there is no single word in English for the symbol has prompted some writers to use the French arobase[3] or Spanish and Portuguese arroba, or to coin new words such as asperand,[4] ampersat[5] and strudel,[6] but none of these has achieved wide usage."

This is extremely hard english not being my native tongue! In other quizzes it is only a slight problem but here it was tough, you usually don't come across these terms, atleast not written.

I mznaged to squeeze out 18 but dont ask me how.. period took me 4 tries! Point, dot, and misspelling... I ve never been sure about the spelling of comma in english. Question mark was really the only I entered without a shred of a doubt creeping up (wether it be spelling or if it was the official term for it or not.)

happily surprised to see paragraph work for pilcrow, really didnt think it would.

ow and it might be an obscure one for some (atleast here) but I knew ampersand for certain aswell :)

Also got accent circumflex, "^", though we use accent circonflexe. Weird how it is both derived from french but spelled differently.

Solidus and reverse solidus should be accepted for slash and backslash. Those are the official Unicode names for those characters (U+002F and U+005C).

In Unicode, the "Guillemet" (U+00AB) is called simply "LEFT-POINTING DOUBLE ANGLE QUOTATION MARK", but usually "double angle quote" is good enough.

Guillemet simply means quotation mark. The two punctuation marks are completely interchangeable, although " is used primarily by English speakers.

It's weird that "curly brace" isn't accepted for {, but "curly bracket" then resolves to "brace".

May we have "stroke" as a type-in for / please? Especially as "slash" is a bit of a neologism.

You should accept "et" for ampersand, since it's actually a ligature of the two letters, which mean "and" in Latin.

I tried "french quote" for guillemet, thinking it was a fair description.

This whole time I thought that was just a cross. You're telling me it's a DAGGER!?

I guess it makes more sense why they use it for extinct species now :p

When I was a copy editor before widespread use of computers a forward slash was always called a virgule. According to Dictionary.com, “ Virgule definition, a short oblique stroke (/) between two words . . .”
