st: What does "$" indicate in Stata

Hi,
I'm a new user and plan to run a 2-part regression model for charges
in Stata. I came across this syntax - svy:glm $y $x if asumexp>0,
family(gamma) link(log) - for the second part of the model. I
understand most of it but what does the "$" before the 2 variable
names mean?
I am just getting started with Stata and I know this is a stupid
question but I would really appreciate if you could help me out.
Regards,
Hitesh S. Chandwani
