Information about ellipses
Ellipsis (plural ellipses; from the Ancient Greek:
ἔλλειψις, élleipsis, "omission" or "falling short") is a series of dots that
usually indicate an intentional omission of a word, sentence or whole
section from the original text being quoted, and though necessary for
syntactical construction, is not necessary for comprehension.[1]
Ellipses can also be used to indicate an unfinished thought or, at the
end of a sentence, a trailing off into silence (aposiopesis), example:
"But I thought he was . . .". When placed at the beginning or end of a
sentence, the ellipsis can also inspire a feeling of melancholy or
longing. The ellipsis calls for a slight pause in speech or any form of
text, and can be used to suggest a tense or awkward momentary
silence.

The most common form of an ellipsis is a row of three periods or full
stops (. . .) or a pre-composed triple-dot glyph (…). The usage of the
em dash (—) can overlap the usage of the ellipsis. The Chicago
Manual of Style recommends that an ellipsis be formed by typing
three periods, each with a space on both sides.
