In the following, the quantity + is the whole radicand, and thus has a vinculum over it: a b + 2 n . {\displaystyle {\sqrt[{n}]{ab+2}}.} In 1637 Descartes was the first to unite the German radical sign √ with the vinculum to create the radical symbol in common use today.
The letters chosen for the IPA are meant to harmonize with the Latin alphabet. [note 7] For this reason, most letters are either Latin or Greek, or modifications thereof. Some letters are neither: for example, the letter denoting the glottal stop, ʔ , originally had the form of a question mark with the dot removed.
