Q: One day, when the Royal Prosecutor (probably the prosecutor) finished with "Complete Stop", I was watching "Law and Order: UK". It reminds me of saying "period" and "period" to the UK. I am interested in the history of these punctuation marks
A: The terms "period" and "period" can be traced back to the times of the Shakespeare era. The two are used in the UK for punctuation marks, but the Oxford English dictionary is currently mainly describing the "period" as a North American.
In this sense, the earliest "period" of OED comes from Arte Brachygraphie, a shorthand book of 1597 written by British calligrapher Peter Bails. "At first it is a complete bonus or period (", "pricke" means a point or point.)
We have not yet read the text of Vail's book, but OED says the term "period" here refers to "a single point used to indicate the end of a sentence".
The dictionary has a previous reference, using "period" at the end of the sentence to indicate a complete pause, not the punctuation itself.
Below are quotes from the Penelope website, the story of British writer Robert Green of 1587. "She thought that her longest Sommer had his Autumn which is the longest sentence of his time"
This dictionary first quoted "period" to indicate that punctuation marks came from Shakespeare 's "Venice Merchant" (1600). Sarahino urged SaraƱo to proceed to the end of the story and said "Come, stop it now."
This is an example using Micrographia's "period" and "period", a book published about microscopic observation by British blogger Robert Hook in 1665. The tag has been completely stopped or during the period. "
"Period" of punctuation has been used since the medieval Latin era (Aelfric's grammar, around the spelling in the Latin and Old English texts of the early 11th century).
The English and EU pause signs use the term "stop". Of course, many countries that do not speak English prefer to use their own language in front of parking signs. The red octagon is used in most countries such as China, Canada, Brazil, Turkey, Mexico, Korea, etc. There are exceptions to using triangle logos such as Japan. Although the sign of the old parking lot in China is also triangle, it has an octagonal shape, it shows just the stopping of the word of Chinese (pronunciation of Ting). This mark is almost the same as used in Taiwan. In Hong Kong, as in many countries, English is based on other more commonly used languages.
Pause signs are easily identifiable and are one of the most important traffic signs. Conventional pause information is displayed on the reflective pause indicator, type A pause indicator, wind tunnel pause indicator, and pause indicator label and includes semi custom pause indicator, early warning pause indicator, multiple pause Signs and directional stop sign security messages
The first matter to consider when considering the function of pause signs is words such as laws, regulations, orders and so on. However, pause signs are also considered inconvenient and say, "Pause signs are inconvenient for the driver and should only be used with a guarantee." I found nearby (near Colorado College in Colorado Springs) that the driver used these parking signs as recommendations rather than actual orders. The problem here is that there are many students who attend school by participating in UCCS every day. The driver does not seem to know that it is legal to provide pedestrians access to pedestrians in Colorado Springs. Maybe they just can not see us walking
