An X mark (also known as a cross, x, ex , X, ✕, ☓, ✖, ✗, ✘, etc.) is used to indicate the concept of negation (for example "no, this has not been verified" or "no, I don't agree") as well as an indicator (for example in election ballot papers or in x marks the spot). Its opposite is often considered to be the check mark or tick (or the O mark used in Japan, Korea and Taiwan). In Japanese, the X mark (❌) is called "batsu" (ばつ) and can be expressed by someone by crossing their arms.[1] {{SpecialChars}}In some countries such as France it is common for people to check a square box with a cross rather than a check mark, while in others the check mark (✓) or even a v mark{{Citation needed|date=August 2010}} is used.
