I love this post so much. I had no idea all these names existed for the different segments of text. Also, now I can feel really smart when I inform someone that the dot over the 'j' is called a jot!! lol ;)

Thanks @jenlavallee! I am very happy to hear that! Yes, it's pretty fun to try and throw some of these into casual conversation. I personally hate the word "tittle", so "jot" is my preference as well, haha.
