You might see two shadows of the same object when there are multiple light sources casting light in different directions, creating more than one shadow. This can occur indoors with artificial lighting or outdoors when sunlight is not directly overhead. Additionally, the angle and intensity of the light sources can affect the appearance of multiple shadows.

The shorthand symbol for 'between' is the symbol "->".

When writing in medical charts we usually use "w/" or a "c" with a dash above it.

Without would then be "w/o" or an "s" with a dash above it.

It must be remembered that "shorthand" is not an exact term. There are really two major schools of shorthand, Gregg's being the most widely accepted and another called, if memory serves, Pittman's. Further, stenographic shorthand was designed to be written in calligraphic script or "cursive" style, to permit the stenographer to smoothly record what a speaker was saying in the days before magnetic tape. Shorthand was not just symbols for a few commonly used words like if but and and, but in fact included thousands of forms or "glyphs" for individual and very complicated words, many in the legal and medical fields. Therefore, any use of printed or typed characters fails to capture the reality and beauty of shorthand.

In Gregg Shorthand the character for "with" looks more or less like the number 6 written with a decidedly rightward lean, about 45 degrees. And the proper symbol for "without" is the same but with an upward sweep added to the end of the tail of the 6 at about that same angle. These symbols can be seen as intended to be written on page 257 of the Gregg Shorthand Dictionary.

The medical "shorthand" that is so common today comes mainly from Latin. The C with the superior line indicates "cum" (pronounced 'koom') Latin for the actual word "with." The S with the superior line indicates "sine" ('see nay') the Latin for "without." Many other medical terms and abbreviations are also Latin derivitives often seen in the writing of prescriptions. BID means "bis in die" or twice in a day while QID means "four times per day" or quater in die.

Lady Justice or Justitia is often depicted blindfolded and holding a pair of scales. Her origins go back to the ancient Greeks and Romans. The scales represent the balance needed to achieve justice and the blindfold indicates that justice should be blind and deal with everyone equally without favour or prejudice.

The symbol Mg represents the chemical element magnesium. Magnesium is a lightweight metal that is commonly found in many minerals and plays a crucial role in various biological processes in living organisms.

The symbol for watts is "W." This unit is used to measure power, which is the rate at which energy is transferred or converted.

Daffodils typically bloom in the early spring, usually between March and May, depending on the location and weather conditions.

The "dragon's teeth" gate was a mythical gate in Greek mythology that could produce soldiers from the ground when planted. It was destroyed by Jason and the Argonauts when they had to pass through it on their quest for the Golden Fleece.

Finch chicks typically start to develop their color when they start to grow their feathers, which is usually around 2-3 weeks old. The color of their feathers will continue to develop and become more vibrant as they mature.

A circle with a plus sign at the "bottom". It is the symbol of Venus and you can think of it as a hand mirror to help distinguish it from the male symbol.

The male symbol is a circle with an arrow pointing to the upper right at about a 45-60 degree angle.

If the arrow points to the upper left (around 120-135 degrees) and has a crossbar on it, then it is the transgender symbol.

The irritant symbol indicates that a particular substance may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, or respiratory system upon contact or inhalation. Precautions should be taken to avoid direct exposure, such as wearing protective equipment and handling the substance in well-ventilated areas.

Symbol amplitude refers to the magnitude or strength of a symbol in a communication system. It is the intensity of the signal representing a specific symbol, which can impact the signal-to-noise ratio and the quality of the communication. In digital communication, symbol amplitude is crucial for accurate symbol detection and decoding.

The term flammable means that it will burn.

It is often used to describe a liquid. It means that if the liquid spills and catches fire, the fire is likely to spread quite rapidly so get away from it as fast as possible.

The term flammable also can be applied to gases and to certain solids that will burn under special conditions. Wood, paper, and such is not usually described as a "flammable solid," for example.

Some common symbols for Mardi Gras include masks, which represent celebration and mystery; beads, symbolizing different aspects of faith; and the colors purple, green, and gold, each with its own meaning—justice, faith, and power, respectively. Fireworks are often used to illuminate the celebration, while flowers like lilies and roses convey different messages of purity and love.

The chemical symbol for Oxygen is O2. It is the 8'th element in the periodic table (having 8 protons in its nucleas and 8 electrons surrounding it), therefore, atomic #8, and has an atomic weight of 16 due to the presence of 8 neutrons in the nucleas (electrons are presumed to weigh nothing, while protons and neutrons are given equal value). This will do for basic chemistry, at least.

The "snow angel" celebration is a move performed by players, notably in American football, where they lay down on the field and move their arms and legs to create an "angel" shape in the snow. One memorable instance of this was when New England Patriots player Danny Amendola performed a snow angel celebration after scoring a touchdown during a game in 2017.

The toxic sign is a skull and crossbones symbol commonly used to indicate substances that are poisonous or harmful if ingested, inhaled, or touched. This sign serves as a warning to alert individuals to the potential dangers associated with the substance.
