Literary notes about Dall (AI summary)
In literature, “dall” is a multifaceted term that appears both as a surname and as part of unique expressions, enriching its narrative and cultural resonance. Writers employ it to denote notable figures—for instance, Caroline H. Dall emerges frequently as a significant personality in historical and suffrage-related writings [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]—and it is also used as a familiar designation in dialogues that capture regional color and character, as seen in conversational exclamations and witty repartees [7, 8, 9].
