What are they called in American English?
I would like to know what are the below signs called in American English, not in mathematics, just on keyboard. I only know few of them and I can't look them up in dictionary.
? = question mark

: = colon
; = semicolon
< and > = ...
/ and \ = ...
( and ) = brackets
' = ...
" = ...
{ and } = ...

Thank you so much!

I'm not American, but they have all gone to bed!
< and > = Angle brackets
/ and \ = Slash and Backslash
( and ) = parentheses ( or just brackets)
' = quote, or quote mark
" = double quote
{ and } = braces or curly brackets
* = asterisk, or star
# = number sign, or pound ( or out of the US, it's a hash)
