How to say "*" and "#"? [closed]
Solution 1:
Usually they are called the "star" key for "*" and the "pound" key for "#", although "hashtag" seems to be growing in use as the name for the "#" key lately.
Solution 2:
The key labeled ✻ was officially named the star key. The original design used a symbol with six points, but an asterisk (*) with five points commonly appears in printing.[citation needed] "#" is officially called the number sign key, but other names such as pound key, hash key, hex key, octothorpe, gate, and square, are common, depending national or personal preference.
Solution 3:
"Star" and "hash", respectively.
For example: *10# would be pronounced "Star - Ten - Hash", or "Star - One - Zero - Hash"
