Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin punctus elevatus.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin punctus elevatus (13th cent.) < classical Latin punctus (see punctus n.) + ēlevātus (see elevate adj.). Compare German Punctus elevatus (1912 or earlier). Compare punctus n., punctus interrogativus n., punctus versus n.

Palaeography.

In medieval manuscripts: a punctuation mark similar in appearance to an inverted semicolon, used to indicate a pause intermediate in length between that marked by a punctus and that marked by a punctus versus. Cf. punctus n., punctus versus n.
