Description

Who would have imagined that something as simple as a comma could change not only the meaning of a paragraph but could also change the future of a person. History tells of a king who once pronounced a strong commute and by placing the comma in the wrong place he condemned a man to be executed instead of pardoning him. Utilizing the correct punctuation signs is vital in written communication, yet, learning how to use them properly involves more than a set of vague rules. Punctuation allows us to convey a myriad of feelings, doubt, pain, and irony. Its ancient sign system provides tools that are impossible for two writers to use in the same manner.
