Period/full stop

Hiya,

in America, they say "period", at the and of the sentence to emphasise that the talker really means what he said. Does somebody happen to know what they say in the UK like this? Is it "full stop", or is it something else? Also, do they actually use that?

Thanks so much! I have been wondering about it for a while!

Hi

If you are asking of the phrase in informal conversation, then the phrase is sometimes "end of" ...

- And that's all I have to say in this thread. End of.

That is an expression that is not used by many of us who are not quite as young as we used to be,
