The young boy I tutor in math and English is part of a group of four boys who are being tutored by someone else on how to build a robot. Any girl who wants to learn how to build a robot will be sponsored, but not the boys. Systēmaticus! Systemic!
Note: In Latin, the exclamation of joy was io, where the i was written above the o. Because the ancient Romans wrote all their letters in capitals, an i with an o below it looked a lot like an exclamation point. Not until 1970 did the exclamation point have its own key on the keyboard!
The recommendation is to use the punctuation point sparingly, and today’s fact brings no joy.
