The ditto mark is a shorthand sign, used mostly in hand-written text, indicating that the words or figures above it are to be repeated.[1][2]

The mark is made using "a pair of apostrophes";[1] "a pair of marks " used underneath a word";[3] the symbol " (quotation mark);[2][4] or the symbol (right double quotation mark).[5]

In the following example, the second line reads "Blue pens, box of twenty".

Black pens, box of twenty ... $2.10
