Ellipsis

An ellipsis is a row of three full stops, used to show that words have been left out. How it looks depends on where it is in the sentence:

The beginning of a sentence

There should be no space between the ellipsis and the word.

…We are aware that each country is unique.

In the middle of a sentence

There should be single spaces before and after the ellipsis.

We are aware that each country … is unique.

The end of a sentence

There should be no space before it and no full stop.

We are aware that each country is unique…

If this is in a quotation, the sentence can be closed by a full stop after the quotation mark

“We are aware that each country is unique…”.
