Nina79 Спасибо! :-) D-50, Alexis a.k.a. Althea Дело в том, что в моем случае это именно pound button, когда мне нужно прослушать voice mail, железная тетка говорит blah-blah-blah and press pound. Оснований сомневаться в правильности этого варианта нет. Очевидно, просто существует два варианта. В моем случае это American English. |
Anton Klimenko, Не слышал никогда pound button, также не слышали еще 3 коллеги (бритты) сидящие рядом со мной. Кстати почему pound (был бы еще знак фунта £ было б понятно). У нас "железные тетки" (клево!) говорят "press hash button" ;-))) |
А в Штатах действительно pound. Тоже не знаю почему :) |

D-50 Не знаю, почему.. Должна же в женщине, пусть и в железной, быть какая-то загадка :-)))) |
Мдааааа......)) hash / hash mark / hash sign In the United States, the symbol was traditionally called the pound sign. This derives from a series of abbreviations for pound avoirdupois, which is a unit of mass (although pound is generally used as a unit of weight; for more information, see pound-force and pound (unit of mass)). At first "lb." was used; later, printers got a special font made up of an "lb" with a line through the ascenders so that the "l" would not be mistaken for a "1". Unicode character U+2114 (℔) is called the "LB Bar Symbol," and it is a cursive development of this symbol. Finally came the reduction to two horizontal and two vertical strokes. Its traditional commercial use in the U.S. was such that when it followed a number, it was to be read as "pounds", as in 5# of sugar, and when it preceded a number, it was to be read as 'number', as in #2 pencil. Thus the same character in a printer's type case had two uses. |
