                                           A Asterisk

                                                       s

                                  Is it “asterisk” or “asteriks”?
                               Pronounce the “s” before the “k.”
                                            “AS-ter-isk”

                             The plural is even more challenging!

                            Don’t forget the “s,” “k,” and then “s.”

                                            “AS-ter-isks”




                                  “Why did you use an asterisk?”
                          “I noted the important items with asterisks.”
