10. The Comma ( , )The Comma ( , )
The comma usage is in some respects a
question of personal writing styles. It
separates some type of information from
other parts of the sentence.
The comma is used for:
1. Separating consecutive word in a paragraph.
Example: Mother buys vegetables, fish, and meat.
2. Give An expression for a suppression statement.
Example: Oh my God, how dirty are your clothes!

11. 3. Behind the words in a sentence relation.
Example: So, are you not coming with us?
4. Give comparison for a statement.
Example: That house is big, but not beautiful.

12. The Semicolon (;)The Semicolon (;)
The primary use of the semicolon is to separate two very
closely related ideas, which have been combined into a single
sentence. Sentences 1 and 2 in the example below can be
combined using a semicolon from sentence 3.
Examples:
1. She stood at the edge, deciding her course of action;
she changed her mind and walked home.
2. I went to the basketball court; I was told it was closed for
cleaning.
3. Everyone knows he is guilty of committing the crime; of
course, it will never be proven.

13. The Colon ( : )The Colon ( : )

clothing.

14. The Dash ( - )The Dash ( - )
The dash is most commonly used in a sentence to separate
unessential or parenthetical elements from the core sentence,
when using a comma would be confusing. This usage also
assists the reader in separating core parts from supporting
information
Examples:
1.His job – we all know that he likes to keep busy ! – was to
tend the children while their parents attended church
2.Her goal – did she send you the memo? – was to raise
money for a new child care center
