The plural is ellipses. The term originates from the grc, ἔλλειψις, meaning 'leave out'. Opinions differ as to how to render ellipses in printed material.

According to the '' AP Stylebook'', the periods should be rendered with no space between them: . A third option is to use the Unicode character U+2026 .

Mirandolina
''Mirandolina'' ( H. 346) is a comic opera in three acts by Bohuslav Martinů, with a libretto (in Italian) by the composer after Carlo Goldoni's 1751 comedy ''La locandiera'' (''The Mistress of the Inn''). Salieri had an opera (''dramma giocoso'') on the same subject premiered at the Vienna Kärtnertortheater in 1773. The opera was written in 1953-4. It incorporates in places stretches of spoken dialogue between the characters, against an orchestral background. The opera was premiered on 17 May 1959 at the Prague National Theatre, Czechoslovakia (shortly before the composer's death), when it was conducted by Václav Kašlik. David Pountney has described the opera as "the work where Martinů's strain of fast-moving, neo-Classical style comes into its own... finding room for witty and ironic musical references to Italian madrigals, French vaudeville and Italian opera buffa".'David Pountney. In the Key of Dreams. ''Opera'', Vol 60 No 6, June 2009, p660. Martinů's biographer Bria ...
