Did the Romans not use line breaks?

[–] Scrollone@feddit.it 2 points 6 hours ago

No, they didn't even use the space to separate words. Take a look at any Roman inscription in Italy, there are no spaces between the words (just like there are no silent pauses between spoken words).

Blank spaces arent characters by definition as they're the space that allows the letters to exist
