Re. "re."; how, and when, did that writing manner suddenly come into fashion?
I’ve seen this re. being used in writings more and more this last couple of months.
From where and how it is used in sentences I take it it is meaning regarding (although I could be wrong of course).
Is this something you have noticed as well, and/or do you use it yourself?
Is it new, or has it just escaped my attention for the last four decades?
If we start cutting words in very small parts, will we in twenty years time all write in steno?
