That's not a glyph, but an English word. It would be perfectly appropriate in English-speaking countries. Not so much in the rest of the world.

- WalterBright 10y agoIt can be treated as a glyph. Why would it be inappropriate? And besides, languages the world over use plenty of words borrowed from English, and English itself is loaded with borrow words from other languages. I've thought the mania for icons to replace common words since the Mac to be silly. Why is a picture of a Kleenex box more understandable than 'PRINT'? I have no idea what half the icons on my iPhone mean. No way to google icons, either. I know, I'm supposed to learn them by pressing them to see what happens, but as someone who has learned not to learn how to operate machinery that way, I find it distasteful.
