Description
This course is for you if you don't know the difference between the following two sentences.
Let's eat Jerry.
Let's eat, Jerry.
What's the difference?
The first one: "let's eat Jerry." indicates that you're going to eat Jerry, not with him.
The second one: "let's eat, Jerry." indicates that you're going to eat with Jerry. So, you are inviting him to eat.
Yes, you said it, "using a comma saves lives."
Imagine you are writing a letter to the president of the United States. Would it be embarrassing to write such mistakes?
So, your message is vital based on who you're sending it to.
We all know how much time writers spend every day writing English well. Lots of writers forget to use correct English punctuation. For that reason, their message may have never been perceived well. Anyone needs to know how to punctuate well. Knowing how to use English punctuation with rules and examples to follow is crucial. I've made this course to help you understand the usage of the following:
Capital letters
The full stop (period.)
ELLIPSES ...

Parentheses ()
Commas ,
EM Dash --
Quotation Mark " "
