Subject: %18 or 18% : incorrect placement of the percentage sign ?
Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2008 10:27:16 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2823285E-0472-4B8C-AA7C-F1A2F3EE07E8@st.estfiles.de> (raw)

Hi,

I have often seen (in arabic newpapers) the percentage sign set left  
to the number "% 18".
Recently I read an article (http://sehstoerung.sonance.net/pdfs/ 
TitusNemeth_dissertation.pdf) that calls this "... the incorrect  
placement of the percentage sign".

Any native arabic speaker out there? Is it %18 or 18% ??


Thanks,

Steffen
