Unnumbered source etymology
Original entry ↗symbol
Selected source glosses provide context, not a complete modern definition inventoryDenotes that the preceding statement is sarcastic.
Based on HTML code, in which a slash indicates the end of an element (for example, </b> marks the end of bold formatting). Originally written as </sarcasm> (to mark the end of a sarcastic message) with the block of text enclosed (see < > ), this was later simplified to /sarcasm and eventually just /s.
