Punctuation is everything in written language other than the actual letters or numbers, including punctuation marks, interword spaces and indentation. Punctuation marks are symbols that correspond to neither phonemes of a language nor to lexemes, but which serve to indicate the structure and organisation of writing, as well as intonation and pauses to be observed when reading it aloud.
This book is written for people who 'find punctuation difficult. If you're not too sure where commas ought to go, if you're puzzled by colons and semicolons, if hyphens and apostrophes are something of a mystery to you, then this book is for you. |
