    whats the red spot Award ?

  • Albert Sellaman

    Albert Sellaman

    It’s an Award.

    An award is something given to a person or a group of people to recognize excellence in a certain field; a certificate of excellence. Awards are often signified by trophies, titles, certificates, commemorative plaques, medals, badges, pins, or ribbons. An award may carry a monetary prize given to the recipient, for example, the Nobel Prize for contributions to society or the Pulitzer Prize for literary achievements. An award may also simply be a public acknowledgment of excellence, without any tangible token or prize.

    Awards can be given by any person or institution, although the prestige of an award usually depends on the status of the awarder.
