When do you use the sign ENTER?
ENTER handles doorways literal and formal: entering a room, a building, a contest. It works beside EXIT in the coming-and-going vocabulary, and signage English gives it a familiar written twin. Receptionists, ushers, and teachers all use it as an instruction, so it reads clearly in both directions.
