GeneralClass 12AllAnswered 27 Mar 2026
Answer
The symbol @ is read as "at" in email addresses and social media handles (john@email.com = "john at email dot com," @username = "at username"). In pricing or commercial contexts, it means "at the rate of" (5 apples @ $2 each). Informally, it can mean "at" in locations (@home = at home). The symbol's name is "at sign" or "at symbol."
