What's the reasoning behind abbreviating hugs and kisses as x's and o's Some say x is for hugs and o is for kisses, and some say the other way around But why x and o, and why are they doubled? Xox, the xs could certainly be said to be centered around the o In the middle, not skewed to one side or the other The sun in the solar system is a good example
Unfortunately, microsoft word puts a big green grammar underline under my use of the the phrase, so i always change it to centered on to be a conformist I've seen a lot of words use an x but be pronounced with a z Mitch hedberg put it best Xylophone is spelled with an x, that's wrong, xylophone's zzzz, x Both grammar girl and the chicago manual of style recommend capitalizing nicknames, not capitalizing terms of endearment, and being consistent in grey areas Click and clack are capitalized because they’re nicknames—they take the place of a real name
Grammarian's answer is asserting that the whole reason some people write moreso is that there's no history of using more so that way. Br is often used for ‘best regards’, and xox (o) for ‘hugs and kisses’, etc Apart from that, you can simply use ‘best’, which is only four letters and thus hardly worth abbreviating.
