What do you call pic related in your language?

Zavináč here. Zavináč means rollmops, which is a kind of rolled up pickled fish food, which I guess resembles @ in shape so they called it that.

Arobase.

I don't know why though. It can easily be substituted by saying "at". People generally understand and can interchange the two.

Arroba. It was an unit of measurement of weight in medieval MENA and it was officially used in Spain during the Islamic ocupation. In fact, the @ was the sign of said unit and was invented by muslims, it was calledالربع(ar-rub) originally and it was roughly 11,2 kilograms

> An Italian academic claims to have traced the @ symbol to the 16th century, in a mercantile document sent by Florentine Francesco Lapi from Seville to Rome on May 4, 1536.[8] The document is about commerce with Pizarro, in particular the price of an @ of wine in Peru. In Italian, the symbol was interpreted to mean amphora (anfora). Currently, the word arroba means both the at-symbol and a unit of weight. In Italian, the symbol represents one amphora, a unit of weight and volume based upon the capacity of the standard amphora jar, and entered modern meaning and use as "at the rate of" or "at price of" in northern Europe.

>Until now the first historical document containing a symbol resembling a @ as a commercial one is the Spanish "Taula de Ariza", a registry to denote a wheat shipment from Castile to Aragon in the as 1448. Even though the oldest fully developed modern @ sign is the one found on the above-mentioned florentine letter.[8]
