Frage 9
Frage
In any piece of writing, whatever the purpose, it is important to be able to use punctuation for effect. See if you can remember how to use the 7 most common punctuation marks by choosing from the drop-down menus to complete the explanations.
1) A full stop (.) is used to [blank_start]indicate that you have finished a point[blank_end] and are about to make a new one.
2) Commas (,) can indicate [blank_start]a pause,[blank_end] [blank_start]separate clauses[blank_end], allow the use of more than one [blank_start]adjective or adverb[blank_end], [blank_start]separate items on a list[blank_end]
3) Exclamations marks (!) should be used sparingly at the [blank_start]end of sentences[blank_end] to convey [blank_start]emotions such as surprise, anger, fear[blank_end] etc. .
4) Questions marks (?) are used to [blank_start]turn sentences into questions[blank_end] which can be [blank_start]direct or rhetorical.[blank_end]
5) A colon (:) is used to make a [blank_start]very definite pause[blank_end] and is most often used [blank_start]just before a list.[blank_end]
6) A semi colon (;) is used instead of [blank_start]a full stop[blank_end] so that two sentences which [blank_start]are linked by theme[blank_end] can be joined.
7) The apostrophe (') has [blank_start]two[blank_end] main uses. It can be used to [blank_start]indicate possession[blank_end] or to show [blank_start]when a letter is missing[blank_end].
