[Ans] Which of these symbols is called an "ampersand"?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which of these symbols is called an "ampersand"?"



The ampersand (&) is a punctuation mark that represents the word "and". Its origins trace back to ancient Rome, where it evolved from the Latin word et, meaning "and." The term "ampersand" itself emerged in the 19th century from the phrase “and per se and,” which was traditionally recited by English-speaking schoolchildren at the end of the alphabet as a way to include the symbol. Over centuries, this practical character has become a widely recognized and visually appealing typographical mark, used in everything from literature to branding.

She was the leading lady of more than sixty silent films. One of these included the 1924 film "Three Weeks" in which she plays the role of an unhappy woman married to the King of Sardalia. She escapes from her life for several weeks and flees to Switzerland for a holiday. There she promptly falls in love with Conrad's character. Before the advent of sound in movies, and even while portraying the most romantic or terrified emotions during her work in silent films, Ms Saucy Pringle was notorious for her language and her off-colour remarks during most of her scenes.
