question mark

Another way the “?” and “!” can be used is to combine them, such as 20. Rd8?! or 30…Bxh3!?. The meaning of this depends on which punctuation mark comes first. “?!” is often used to mean a questionable move, but not an outright mistake. This can also be represented as a question mark in parentheses, for example, 20. Rd8 (?), but is seen much less often nowadays than “?!”. The combination “!?” is often used to indicate surprise at a particular move, and often also to mean that move is speculative and risky, but probably good (which is why the “!” goes first).
