"graffiti" pen-strokes 有兩種意義﹕1-手寫輸入法的一種,2-在螢屏上的輸入區,即書寫盤區。在網上,"graffiti"多無翻譯,照用原字。唯一可見翻譯是﹕虛擬手寫區

The word "graffiti" expresses the plural of "graffito", although the singular form has become relatively obscure and is largely used in art history to refer to works of art made by scratching the design on a surface. Another related term is sgraffito, a way of creating a design by scratching through one layer of pigment to reveal another one beneath. All of these English words come from the Italian language, most likely descending from "graffiato", the past participle of "graffiare" (to scratch); ancient graffitists scratched their work into walls before the advent of spray-paint, as in murals or frescoes. These words derive in their turn from the Greek γραφειν (graphein), meaning "to write". Historians continue to speculate over the vexing question as to where the term "graffiti" first referred to this form of marking.

Graffiti=scratching on a surface, making a mark, to write
