  Ampersand Sudoku

  06.16.08 | Permalink | 3 Comments

  Anything numbers related makes my head spin so I have stayed pretty far away from sudoku, but objet de carte created a card that has tons of ampersands in one place, so I’m interested.

The Ampersand

A scribal abbreviation for and. Derived from the Latin word “et.”

About

I like the ampersand. I think it is often the most attractive character of them all. This blog is an attempt to give this humble ligature the respect it deserves. If you would like to submit some ampersand-related content, please let me know.
