    Foil, when you quote a source verbatum you should be using quotation marks. This is from wikipedia. "The at sign (@), also called the ampersat, apetail, arroba, atmark, acosta, at symbol, commercial at, curlat or monkey tail, is formally an abbreviation of the accounting and commercial invoice term "at the rate of" I know you are somewhat new to this site but Smoothy did it correctly by posting the link and not giving the appearance of using someone else's answer as their own.

Hi! What symbol is this? ftp://rth.ath.cx/pub/koru/IMG_4826.JPG What does it represent? I bought the pendant from a little shop in Amsterdam 10 years ago, and if I remember correctly, the salesperson said it represents hope. I'd like to verify if that's correct. Thanks!
