How do you spell @ in English?

Question:

Answers:
Dear Anderson C:

At sign

The attersand (@, read aloud in English as "at") is a typographic symbol used as an abbreviation for "at" in accounting and commercial invoices, in statements such as "7 widgets @ $2 ea. = $14". More recently, the at symbol has become ubiquitous because of its use in email addresses.

It is often referred to informally as the at symbol, the at sign, or just at. In other languages, the symbol may have a different name (see below). It has the official name commercial at in the ANSI/CCITT/Unicode character encoding standards. However, no formal English term has been officially assigned to this character.

The symbol @ is correctly called 'ampersand'. It is the short way of writing 'at the rate of'. It is often misquoted as meaning 'at'.
Wouldn't happen to be 'at' by any chance?
its aeh but means in or a place.
