pilcrow - n., a paragraph mark ( ¶ ).


This may be a repeat, but I like it enough not to care. Origin uncertain, but may be from Old French paragrafe via either pylcraft or parcrafte.

Never seen this one before.

For some reason the word makes me hungry.

I had forgotten that one.

Someone should have a blog called Pilcrow's Progress.
