Atmark //
词 形:
@标志

Definition: A newly current word for the "at" character @. Also called the "At Sign", "Commercial At", "Commercial At Sign", "Commercial Symbol".
Also has numerous nicknames, including snail, arabesque, monkey, curl, cabbage, twiddle, twist, a-twist, strudel, vortex, whorl, whirlpool, cyclone, ape, cat, rose.
The official ANSI/CCITT name is "commercial at". In the PostScript language it is called the "at" sign.
The expansion of the Internet has brought the sign into prominence, but it remains a mystery why people have difficulty naming the symbol, which has been on typewriter keyboards since the nineteenth century. Perhaps the decline of traditional arithmetic teaching and manual book-keeping ( "15 neeps @ 2 farthings each" ) caused the meaning of the symbol for the younger generation to drop out of knowledge just before it acquired a new use.

The single unit term Atmark perhaps has some utility for people speaking aloud Internet addresses.

Derivation: The atmark written as a single character is a manuscript abbreviation of the Latin "ad", which means "at".
