Hi All,
First, hello from my new abode.
One of my main foci is on the translation of out docs into a number of Euro languahes, and I'll be posting a lot more queries in the future as I get deeper into it.
For now, however, I'm curious about the ampersand. Does it have universal meaning or are there cultural variations which could lead to confused interpretations?
thanks,
Henry
