Examples

“For quotations using this term, see⟳ Citations:soph.”

“I’m Soph, not Sophie. When I order⟳ a coffee from Starbucks and I tell⟳ them my name⟳ is Soph, they reply⟳ with ‘Is that Sophie?’ When I sign⟳ off an email ‘Best Wishes, Soph’ and the reply⟳ is ‘Thanks for your email, Sophie’ – I don’t recall⟳ saying Sophie, so STOP⟳. It’s Soph. Just Soph. Obviously if you want⟳ to get⟳ into the nitty gritty of it, my passport says Sophie, and my mum calls me Sophie when I’m in trouble⟳, but unless you’re my passport or my mum, Soph will do! I find⟳ it’s more approachable and friendly and makes me feel⟳ good.”
