Does anyone know why in many vernacular languages symbols for stuff like question mark and exclamation etc are "?" and "!" (adopted from the west), did we have our own symbols for these and does sanskrit still use different ones in writing?
I did some googling and what came up was that the symbols are new and sanskrit uses the word "kim" to mark a question.
What about Tamil, did it have them before?
