      I like the Spanish one. It is great that a question is announced in advance.

      Spain’s the best one cause it lets you know it’s gonna be a question before you start reading the sentence

      I was familiar with Spain (and I think it is actually a great trick, allowing you to identify a question right from the beginning of the sentence), but could someone explain Greece? I seem to recall seeing „?“ being used in (modern) Greek texts.

      Armenia has irs own Question Mark too, it’s a curl over the last stressed vowel in the word, I believe.

      Is the double question mark usdd in any language other than Spanish?

      Got surprised by Greece, though.

      In school we used to fuck with each other by replacing some random semicolons in our friends‘ C code with greek question marks

      spanish ones are actually clever. because sometimes you want to know how you should read a sentence. it determines how you articulate the sentence either a question or just a regular sentence it changes.

      Weird that Spanish developed a clearly better system and nobody else has adopted it.

      We don’t use the ? symbol at all in Greece. And the greek equivelant of ; in greek is · (the interpunct, very rarely used and funnily enough we call it „upper dot“) Another difference is that for quotes we use « » instead of “ „

      There’s no way Greece actually uses semicolons as question marks right;;;

    28. no-im-not-him on

      Spanish does not change the word order when a question is being asked, in the spoken language, the only difference between a question and a statement is intonation. So, if you are reading out loud a long question, you need the initial question mark to indicate the change in intonation.

      Im greek, and in formal text we always use „;“ but its not too uncommon to see someone use „?“ (However it is grammatically incorrect)
