What do you call three dots at the end of a sentence?

Three dots at the end of a sentence are called an ellipsis.

Here's a breakdown:

* Ellipsis: The three dots (...) are used to indicate an omission of words or an unfinished thought.

* Sentence: An ellipsis can be placed at the end of a complete sentence, suggesting that the thought continues or that there's more to be said.

Example: "I was going to tell you... but I changed my mind."
