In addition to what others have said it can also be used on identifiers
to allow language keywords as names. It's not something you see very
often though. For example, a VB.NET developer could decide that the
identifier "sealed" would be a good name for a property not knowing
that it is a keyword in C#. A C# developer using the VB.NET code would
need to qualify it with an @.
Of course, anyone following the .NET naming conventions would
automatically avoid all C# keywords because all keywords in C# are in
lower-case, and all non-private members in the .NET naming conventions
are PascalCased :)
