Skills of Punctuation

Course modified date: 16 يونيو 2022

Learn about punctuation, how to use a full stop, question marks, exclamation marks and the different ways of using commas and apostrophes. This course is ideal for intermediate learners.

Introduction 
In this course we are going to look at some of the most common types of punctuation, and think about how to use this punctuation in everyday writing.

Punctuation are marks and symbols that we use to separate out our words and our sentences. Every sentence has some kind of punctuation symbol included in it – like this one, for example, which has a dash, commas, and will have a full stop.

The reason that we use punctuation is that it helps to make our writing – and the things we are trying to say through our writing – a little easier to read.

Using punctuation can be the difference between someone understanding your thoughts and ideas, and someone not understanding them at all! So it is always worth knowing which punctuation mark you should be using and where you should be using it.

 ·       Know how to use a full stop
·       Know how to use question marks
·       Know how to use exclamation marks
