To ADDLE† v. n. Dr. Johnson calls this word obsolete. Mr. Boucher defines it "to earn by working," and considers it as a Yorkshire, Staffordshire, Cumberland, and Cheshire word; derived from the Sax. æðlean, or eðlean, merces, retributio, renumeratio, whence also addlings, wages received for work. A gentleman has informed me, that in Nottinghamshire, and throughout the north, with some variation of sound, addle and addlings are now in use. He has also obligingly explained the use of the word by [Thomas] Tusser, whom Dr. Johnson cites. "Ivy will so embrace a tree as not only to prevent its encrease, but to kill it. Tusser therefore advises to kill the ivy, or the tree will not addle, that is, will not earn or produce any other profit to its owner."

The term shocking or addling trout and salmon eggs is applied to the process of turning the infertile eggs white so they can be separated from the fertile ones.

The value of the eroteme as a sign of pause, is stated very differently by different grammarians.... J.S. Hart avers, that, "A question is reckoned as equal to a complete sentence, and the mark of interrogation as equal to a period."

1858, Goold Brown, The Grammar of English Grammars, fourth edition, Samuel S. and William Wood, page 798,

The note of interrogation or eroteme is used at the end of a sentence to designate (1) a single question or (2) more, and (3) is sometimes written in parentheses to express a doubt or challenge the accuracy of a statement.

1913, Frank H. Vizetelly, The Preparation of Manuscripts for the Printer, fifth revised edition, Funk & Wagnalls Company, page 50,

On the typewriter keyboard, just below the question mark (the eroteme, note of interrogation, or uncertainty sign), there appears a short, slanting stroke […]

interrobang

拉丁語 interrogātiō (“檢查，要求，疑問”) + bang (“感歎號”)，1962年首次出現於雜誌《TYPEtalks》，作者是 Martin K. Speckter (1915–1988)，他也是該符號的創造者。

/ɪnˈtɛ.ɹəʊˌbæŋ/

/ɪnˈtɛ.ɹəˌbæŋ/

/ɪnˈtɛ.ɹɔˌbæŋ/

疑問驚歎號，‽ (? + !) （自1962年）

Has anyone seen an interrobang? It's a newly invented punctuation mark that looks like this: ‽ A question mark with an exclamation point superimposed, it's meant to convey that nuance of feeling—a mixture of query and surprise—that people have in mind when they say "Really?", also meaning "Really!", or "How about that‽" […] The cure for incredibility is not more punctuation, but more plain talk. We don't need symbols like the interrobang that merely express our perpetual disbelief. We need plain words to express plain truths.

1968年November15日，William Zinsser，“For clear expression: Try words: The interrobang”, in Life，卷 65, 期 20, Chicago, Ill., New York, N.Y.: Time Inc., →ISSN, →OCLC，頁 24:

The Interrobang is not a font – just a single character. Yet it is so powerful a symbol, and such a flawed and original concept, that it deserves a place alongside the most adventurous typographic innovations of the last century. It is an exclamation mark and a question mark combined, a ligature looping the curve of the interrogation with the downward force of the expletive (which compositors and printers have traditionally called a bang). When they meld, they need only one round point at their base.

2011 September，Simon Garfield，“Breaking the Rules”, in Just My Type: A Book About Fonts，New York, N.Y.: Gotham Books, Penguin Group, →ISBN，頁 268:

Popular as it was with writers and admen, the interrobang faced a struggle for mainstream acceptance. Simulating an interrobang on a typewriter was possible, if clumsy—type "?" and then overstrike it with "!"—but for typesetters creating a printed document, there was no such shortcut. Those advertisements, brochures, and books that actually honored the writer's use of the character had to be set using handcrafted interrobangs, either drawn by an illustrator or sculpted from rubber cement with a razor blade.

2013，Keith Houston，“The Interrobang”, in Shady Characters: The Secret Life of Punctuation, Symbols & Other Typographical Marks，New York, N.Y.: W. W. Norton & Company, →ISBN，頁s 28–29:

Introduce the notion of combining punctuation marks in new ways. Explain the Interabang and its use as a nonstandard punctuation mark intended to combine the functions of the question mark and the exclamation mark. Allowing your students the use of all keyboard symbols to create additional punctuation forms, what other punctuation combinations would prove useful in allowing greater expression through punctuation?

There are game entrees, meat entrees, fish entrees, fowl entrees, etc.
