sans serif
font or letter with no serifs, font with a smooth shape that does not have decorative extensions at the ends of lines
Sans-serif
In
typography, a sans-serif or sans serif (sometimes just sans)
typeface is one that does not have the small features called "
serifs" at the end of strokes. The term comes from the
French word sans, meaning "without".In print, sans-serif fonts are more typically used for headlines than for body text . The conventional wisdom is that serifs help guide the eye along the lines in large blocks of text. Sans-serifs however have acquired considerable acceptance for body text in
Europe. Sans-serif fonts have become the de facto standard for body text on-screen, especially online. It has been suggested that this is because the small size of the font causes excess clutter on the screen This is also true of typography on mobile screens, though it is less commonly used in television screens (the
United Kingdom uses a Serif font by default on television)
