PUNCTUATION MARKS
What are the punctuation marks we need to know?
Punctuation has a way of adding emphasis and cadence to our written sentences. Many people are not always sure when and where to use punctuation marks.
There are 14 punctuation marks used in the English language. They are: the period, question mark, exclamation point, comma, colon, semicolon, semicolon, hyphen, dash, brackets, braces, braces, parentheses, apostrophe, quotation marks and ellipses.
We can divide punctuation marks into five categories, as follows: Sentence endings: period, interrogation mark, exclamation mark. *Comma, colon and semicolon *Hyphen and dash *Square brackets, braces and parentheses *Arrow brackets, braces and parentheses *Apostrophe, quotation marks and ellipsis *Each category has its own purpose within a sentence or text.
DIVISION
Question mark (?)
A question mark also ends a sentence, but it ends a sentence that is a direct question. Normally, sentences that are questions begin with what, how, when, where, why or who.Example of how to use a question mark in a sentence: How do you like your eggs?
I n general, a question mark also denotes a change in the tone of a sentence if it is read aloud, so it is something to keep in mind.
Question mark (?)
Period (.)
Also known as the period, the period denotes the end of a sentence. A full sentence is one that is complete and enunciative. Example of a period at the end of a sentence: *The dog ran under the fence. * Periods are also used in abbreviations, such as in names or titles.
Examples of how to use a period in abbreviations:
Dr. Smith read his patient's chart.
comma (,)
Commas are used to insert a pause in a sentence. The purpose of the pause can be for different reasons, such as separating ideas, phrases or even altering the structure of a sentence. Commas have a few different uses. Commas are used for direct address, such as: *Joe, it was good to see you again.They are also used to separate two complete sentences: *He went to the library and then went out to lunch. Commas can also be used to list elements in a sentence: *She went shopping and bought shoes, a dress, two shirts, and a pair of pants.
There are two types of hyphens that vary in size and use.
Short hyphen : generally shorter, the short hyphen is used to indicate a range, such as between numbers or dates.
For example:
She took the Chicago-New York train last night.
HYPHEN (-)
Not to be confused with the hyphen, the dash is used in compound words when two or more words are connected. Here are some examples of hyphenated words:For example:
Step-by-step
Star (-)
Exclamation point (!)
An exclamation point is also used at the end of a sentence when that sentence expresses an intense emotion. The expression can be a variety of things, from excitement, disgust, anger, joy, or anything else. -Exclamation marks are intended to add emphasis to a sentence.- Example of how to use one in a sentence: * "Look behind you!" she shouted.
Semicolon (;)
Similar to a colon, a semicolon links two independent clauses. However, the clauses are more closely related than when you would use a colon.For example: *I have a meeting tomorrow morning; I can't go out tonight. I have a meeting tomorrow morning; I can't go out tonight. Both clauses are independent enough to be their own sentences, but instead of using a period, it is possible to use a semicolon to show that both clauses are connected.
Colon (:)
A colon has three main uses. One way to use it is when introducing something, such as a quote, an example, a series, or an explanation.
Example: He took four classes last semester: history, biology, arts, and economics A colon can also be used to link two independent clauses if the second clause clarifies or completes the first. For example:
They had no time to waste: it was already late. .
ELLIPSIS(...)
Quotation marks (")
Quotation marks are used to denote text, speech or words spoken by another person. It is also used to indicate dialogue. Example *"I don't like this," Mark said.
An ellipsis is three periods used together to represent an omission of words or letters. They are often used to jump from one sentence or phrase to another while omitting unnecessary or obvious words. It’s also used when quoting someone and unnecessary words are left out. Example: At midnight, she began to count down: “ten, nine, eight…” and then the ball dropped.
APOSTROPHE (')
Parentheses (( ))
Apostrophes are meant to show that a letter or letters have been omitted and also to indicate the possessive or contractions. It can also be used to pluralize lowercase
Parentheses are used to provide more detail or information or as an aside. Parentheses can often be replaced with commas and the sentence would retain the same meaning. Example: Kate (who is Matt's wife) likes to go for walks.
letters. Example: I’ve been working from home for 6 months and it’s great
