| I just got a comment wich says only 2 leters "En". Is that a short for something, or she's just doing it to increase the number of comments on her profile? |

Note that these are not absolute values, but relative to the current type size. As I recall, an "em" is equal to the type's height in points, and an "en" is half that. So, in 12-point type an "em" equals 12 points (or one pica or about 1/6 inch), but for 72-point type that same "em" is now 72 points (one inch) wide.
Maybe the commenter was going to type "enough already" but took their own advice before finishing. |

It's likely the person deleted some of the default text in the comment box and just left the 'En' part of 'Enter...' When I first started and didnt leave a comment I thought you had to delete that text or else that would be your comment. So naive and innocent that I was!
