'Slash' In French



The forward slash
is the default slash,
so 'slash' and 'barre oblique' do fine.

The backward slash
is the 'antislash',
the 'slash en arriere'
and the 'barre oblique inverse'.

'Le trait d'union' is the hyphen
('trait' being 'line') .

For mine,
the slashes should be
'le trait oblique'
et 'le trait oblique anti'.
