EspañolMARK (DESIGNATION)
The word 'Mark', followed by number, is a common way to name a product in a production line, similar in meaning to "Type". It is often abbreviated as 'Mk' or 'M'. Because a mark is often made to measure height or progress, by metonymy the word mark is used to mean a level of development, and level designations like "Mark I", "Mark II" etc. come to be used as proper names. However, since the same name is used for a wide variety of products, it can have varied connotations for different persons. The most widely known example is probably that of military products, such as the M16 rifle.
