It is something which apparently might be found in a book, but what exactly is an 'extratextual symbol'?

Is it those little '1s' and '2s' you get by sentences.. which you have to then look up on footer notes?

Ah, that might be it, although this is mentioned in the context of a children's book which probably doesn't have those...

Mars bar...wooohooo.

really great thanks. Loved it and has put it down as 1st choice. She has been offered place with grades of BBC, but they liked her so said they would not hold her to those, ie ring up once the results are through and see what happens.

Cool, she'll have a great time here. I hope the recent SHOOTING at the union has not put her off since her decision! (it's honestly very safe round here normally!)

Her second choice is Brunel.

From what I have seen and read about that area, it makes Baghdad seem like Shangri La.

It's when a letter is placed after a word to indicate whether it is a noun (n), verb (v), adjective (a) etc
