a typographical symbol (†) used to indicate a footnote, annotation, or cross-reference in printed text
A dagger (†) is a typographical symbol used primarily as a reference mark in written text. It serves various purposes, such as indicating footnotes, annotations, or related comments, especially when multiple references are present. In such cases, a dagger typically follows the item it refers to, similar to how an asterisk (*) might be used. For example, in a text that discusses various topics, a dagger might appear next to a point to direct readers to further information or clarification. Additionally, the dagger can also denote a death date in genealogical or historical contexts, providing important information without interrupting the flow of the main text.
