One space or two?

When you learned to type, were you instructed to use one space or two after a period?

Which decade did your schooling take place in?

Nowadays, the accepted standard is to use just one space, and this is widely regarded as definitive.

One thought on “One or two spaces?”

  1. I was taught to use one space after a full stop, which aligns with modern typographic standards. I completed my schooling in the 2000s, so by then, the shift toward one space had already gained widespread acceptance. It’s interesting to see how styles have changed over the decades, especially with the evolution of digital media! What about you? What decade did you learn in, and what do you prefer?
