Punctuation and Format Conventions
Punctuation and format conventions differ from one language and culture to another. Business and personal letters are laid out quite differently and follow specific formats as do emails.
Punctuation conventions may often be specific to a particular language and may not be transferable from one culture or language to another.
Successful application of punctuation conventions in the English language will assist students in conveying their message and communicating effectively.
Pronunciation marks are: full stop, comma, semi-colon, colon, hyphen, dash, question mark, exclamation mark, slash quotation mark, apostrophe, brackets, square brackets and ellipsis.
