note of interjection (plural notes of interjection)

  1. (obsolete) An exclamation mark.
    • 1861, Anthony Trollope, Framley Parsonage:
      He would use the simplest, plainest language, he said to himself over and over again; but it is not always easy to use simple, plain language,—by no means so easy as to mount on stilts, and to march along with sesquipedalian words, with pathos, spasms, and notes of interjection.
