      2. @redenchilada It is a common thing in some foreign countries to substitute "a" with "@" for some reason... I would ask Mushi, that is where I learned of this. Or was it Nerthos?

        1. @metaltao That was just for gender-specific pronouns referring to unknown genders though, right?

          1. @redenchilada I've only seen it in "latin@" where I guess it's like both an a and an o so it could work either way. And even then, only one person ever did it that I encountered.

            1. @scribus Yeah it was something like that. I dunno, I don't speak enough Spanish to be useful.

              1. @redenchilada I can confirm I haven't seen this used in any written French online, so that can be ruled out.

                1. @northernnarwhal @redenchilada yes, it's a Spanish mark for both masculine and feminine at the same time. No known use in English or French…

                  1. @northernnarwhal @redenchilada Sometimes Spanish-speaking people also use the 'x' (e.g. 'chicxs' and 'chic@s' stand for 'chicos y chicas')

              2. @redenchilada recently i've see people who are against genders in languages replace a (for females) and o (for males) with either @ or x, but the guys is using it in english, so i dont know why
