Punctuation Punctuation serves a similar purpose in written texts as features
of pronunciation (e.g. intonation, stress) serve in spoken discourse.
It helps the reader make sense of a text. A text with no punctuation,
or incorrect punctuation, can cause confusion or incomprehension
for the reader. Correct punctuation saves the reader time and avoids
misunderstandings. |
