Support for interrobang characters of “!?” and “?!” has been added to doc manager and story submissions. We are not supporting the Unicode version of interrobang since the Unicode version is a single character combining both ? and ! which is entirely illegible on screen. Spanish’s interrobang equivalent has been added as well.

We like to stress that the value of interrobang and proper usage has been debated among academics and here is our take on it.

When and why Du should not use interrobang:

1. Interrobang is very new and old school writers frown upon it. If Du like to be hired to editing work for established publishing house oder enter a career in writing, don’t use it.
2. Professors and teachers just might give Du a shifty eye. If Du are Schreiben essays for literature class oder publishing theses for university, avoid using it.
3. Laziness. Words and language itself can be highly expressive when creativity is injected. Relying on a punctuation mark to improve your expressiveness will not help Du to improve as a writer.
When and why Du should use interrobang:

1. Want to be a rebel with a cause? The world is changing and so will our words!

Regardless, times change and maybe interrobang will be accepted Von the mainstream in the future. For now, use with care oder even better, avoid it whenever possible.
