Introduction The "ordinary" hyphen, which is representable by U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS or U+2010 HYPHEN, usually is displayed by a single short horizontal dash, but has a considerable glyph variation: it can be slanted to oblique or doubled (stacked) according to the used font. For instance, in Fraktur (Blackletter) fonts, it commonly is represented by two stacked short oblique dashes. However, in certain applications, double hyphens (consisting of two stacked short dashes) are used as characters with semantics deviating from the "ordinary" hyphen, e.g. to represent a definite unit in transliteration. For such a special application, in this case for transliteration of Coptic, U+2E17 DOUBLE OBLIQUE HYPHEN was encoded ([1], example on p. 9). However, there are other applications where the double hyphen us usually not oblique. For such applications, here a "DOUBLE HYPHEN" is proposed, which consists of two stacked short dashes which usually are horizontal.

  • Grammar & Spelling
    Alberta Labour Relations Board Chapter 13(c) Effective: 1 January 2003 Grammar & Spelling GRAMMAR & SPELLING INTRODUCTION This chapter addresses common questions of grammar and spelling for Board staff. Other chapters discuss typographical issues [Typography, Chapter 13(b)] and the content of Board documents and correspondence [Content, Chapter 13(a)]. This chapter specifically addresses: • abbreviations (e.g., i.e., etc.); • affect vs. effect; • alternate vs. alternative; • among vs. between; • apostrophes; • Canadian spellings; • capitalization; • colloquialisms; • colons and semi-colons; • commas; • comprises vs. composed of; • dashes, hyphens and compound words; • dates; • ellipses; • however; • its, it’s and anthropomorphizing; • legal terms; • lists; • numbers; • parallel constructions; • parentheses and parenthetic expressions; • periods; • plurals; • quotation marks; • subject-verb agreement; • tense; • that vs. which; • that vs. who; • who vs. whom; and • whose vs. who’s. 1 Alberta Labour Relations Board Chapter 13(c) Effective: 1 January 2003 Grammar & Spelling ABBREVIATIONS Several abbreviations are commonly used in Board correspondence: • e.g., : This abbreviation means “for example”. There are periods after each letter and it is followed by a comma. It is often confused with i.e., . • i.e., : This abbreviation means “that is” or “that is to say”. There are periods after each letter and it is followed by a comma. It is often confused with e.g., . • etc. : This abbreviation means “and others” or “and so forth” or “and similar things”. It is followed by a period. This abbreviation is never preceded by and. It is illogical to use etc. in a list that is introduced with for example, such as or include/includes the following because these phrases indicate that which follows are only some of the possibilities.

  • Semicolons, Colons, and Dashes
    UMC Writing Center Handouts Semicolons, Colons, and Dashes “No other piece of punctuation so compactly captures the way in which our thoughts are both liquid and solid, wave and particle.” – from “Semicolons: A Love Story”1 Unlike periods and commas, which are so ubiquitous that they become second nature to us, semicolons, colons, and dashes frequently mystify students. Perhaps this is because these punctuation marks are reserved for stylistic usage – the basics of written English require only periods and commas. Or perhaps it is because these rarer forms of punctuation are rarely covered in elementary school grammar lessons. Whatever the reason, semicolons, colons, and dashes are actually far less confusing than commas. Unlike commas, they have very specific uses that can be explained on a single side of a handout. SEMICOLONS Semicolons are most commonly used to connect two complete sentences that are closely related in meaning. They are the grammatical equivalent to a period (full stop) or a coordinating conjunction that comes after a comma. To make sure that you are using a semicolon correctly, ensure that the sentences on either side of the semicolon could stand by themselves. Incorrect: Told she would not succeed; nevertheless, she persisted. (first sentence lacks a subject) Correct: They told her she would not succeed; nevertheless, she persisted. Incorrect: Pulling on her combat boots and putting her hair in a ponytail; she was ready. Correct: She pulled on her combat boots and put her hair in a ponytail; she was ready. For more on what constitutes a “complete sentence,” see the “Fragments and Run-Ons” and “Coordinating Conjunctions” handouts.

Introduction. A set of characters used by specialists in medieval European philology, palaeography, and linguistics has long been absent from the Universal Character Set. This proposal requests 21 punctuation characters be added for support of medieval European linguistic and literary research and publication. If this proposal is accepted, the following characters will be encoded: ⹅ 2E45 PARAGRAPHUS MARK ⹆ 2E46 POSITURA MARK ⹇ 2E47 COLON WITH SIDEWAYS REVERSED RAISED COMMA ⹈ 2E48 COLON WITH RAISED POSITURA MARK ⹉ 2E49 TWO DOTS OVER COMMA ⹊ 2E4A PUNCTUS ELEVATUS MARK ⹋ 2E4B SIDEWAYS REVERSED MIDDLE COMMA ⹌ 2E4C PUNCTUS FLEXUS MARK ⹍ 2E4D PUNCTUS VERSUS MARK ⹎ 2E4E LOW PUNCTUS VERSUS MARK ⹏ 2E4F PUNCTUS INTERROGATIVUS MARK ⹐ 2E50 PUNCTUS EXCLAMATIVUS MARK ⹑ 2E51 MEDIEVAL COMMA ⹒ 2E52 HIGH DOT ⹓ 2E53 SIMPLEX DUCTUS MARK ⹔ 2E54 DOTTED SOLIDUS ⹕ 2E55 SIGNE DE RENVOI ⹖ 2E56 MIDDLE COMMA ⹗ 2E57 TILDE WITH DOT ABOVE AND DOT BELOW 1 ⹘ 2E58 VERTICAL FIVE DOTS ⹙ 2E59 TRIPLE DAGGER 2. Functions of Medieval punctuation. Modern European punctuation comprises a set of named marks which are used with relatively well-established usages. Medieval punctuation was based on discursive functions; in some areas and at some times different configurations of dots were used to express those functions.

  • Implications of Punctuation Mark Normalization on Text Retrieval. Doctor Of
    IMPLICATIONS OF PUNCTUATION MARK NORMALIZATION ON TEXT RETRIEVAL Eungi Kim, B.S., M.S. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2013 APPROVED: William E. Moen, Major Professor Brian C. O’Connor, Committee Member Christina Wasson, Committee Member Suliman Hawamdeh, Chair of the Department of Library and Information Sciences Herman Totten, Dean of College of Information Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Kim, Eungi. Implications of punctuation mark normalization on text retrieval. Doctor of Philosophy (Information Science), August 2013, 278 pp., 41 tables, 20 figures, references, 94 titles. This research investigated issues related to normalizing punctuation marks from a text retrieval perspective. A punctuated-centric approach was undertaken by exploring changes in meanings, whitespaces, words retrievability, and other issues related to normalizing punctuation marks. To investigate punctuation normalization issues, various frequency counts of punctuation marks and punctuation patterns were conducted using the text drawn from the Gutenberg Project archive and the Usenet Newsgroup archive. A number of useful punctuation mark types that could aid in analyzing punctuation marks were discovered. This study identified two types of punctuation normalization procedures: (1) lexical independent (LI) punctuation normalization and (2) lexical oriented (LO) punctuation normalization. Using these two types of punctuation normalization procedures, this study discovered various effects of punctuation normalization in terms of different search query types. By analyzing the punctuation normalization problem in this manner, a wide range of issues were discovered such as: the need to define different types of searching, to disambiguate the role of punctuation marks, to normalize whitespaces, and indexing of punctuated terms.
