I'm just wondering, what is the correct way to refer to "!important".
I currently refer it is "not important"--but I guess, it's wrong. What
is the correct way? TIA

I just call it 'important', because that what it is. The ! is just a
delimiter. http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/cascade.html#important-rules

"important" is the meaning and I understand it. But, think about
the situation of teacher who has to refer the notation when he write
it on board; how should he refer?
<OT>
Here in South India, people refer a*b as "a into b". But, lately I
have seen that Dijkstra refers it as "a times b" (in a google video).

Really? In the US, "a into b" means "b divided by a" = b/a.

Yes. a/b is referred as "a by b" in Mathematical context and "a
bar b" referring door numbers (e.g., 20/5). And sometimes "a slash b"
in programming context.
When we start discussing about countries and cultures, we'd get
crazy info. FWIW, I got surprised when someone in a.e.u informed me
that asking marital status in Western countries is an offense.

In C, we refer "!" as "not". So, I refer "!important" as "not
important". But, I'm still interested in official way of referring.
But this is not C it's CSS, which is a totally different topic.

Unlikely, as the term shebang pre-dates bang paths by some years.

The word is most unlikely to have been derived from something that only
came into existence about a century after Mark Twain used the word : see

And of course I never implied that there wasn't an existing word "shebang"
that was borrowed as a ref to the symbol pair, the latter symbol of which
is a bang.
