do you need a period after id, if u use parenthetical?
greetings TLS
final paper due very soon like many and im a bit confused
if we use id
"see id (holding that blah blah)"
do we need a period after the id?
"see id. (gorkgorwkgrowk)"
also, its undercased right?

Yes, you always use a period for id. In that example, yes it is not capitalized. Think of it like a sentence. If it is beginning a sentence it is capitalized, if not then it is not capitalized.myung76 wrote:greetings TLS

The period is also always italicized / underlined, depending on what form you're using.

Your writing suggests you'll have bigger problems than the period after the "id".myung76 wrote:greetings TLS

do u say "see id."
or "id"
i guess, does the same apply for signals to id? or is just "id." better
