WHAT IS PUNCTUATION?

- Punctuation is an extremely important part of literacy.

- Without it, sentences don’t form properly, and the meaning of a text can be lost in a block of words. In addition, punctuation signifies the flow of a sentence or paragraph; it allows you to get a feel for a passage and can accentuate key points.

- For this reason, punctuation is a significant aspect of the English Proficiency Test.
