sans-serif
Clean font style
Sans-serif describes typefaces whose letters lack the small projecting strokes (serifs) at the ends of lines.
These clean, unadorned fonts—like Arial, Helvetica, and Verdana—are often preferred for digital screens and modern design: The website uses a sans-serif font for readability.
As a noun, a sans-serif is such a typeface.
