This video introduces the punctuation section.

Without punctuation, the English language would just be a stream of words and it would be very difficult to make sense of it.

This section on punctuation is organised as follows:

First there are those things that come at the end of a sentence, namely

• full stop,

• exclamation mark and

• question mark.

Then quotation marks.

Following that, a block about things that are used for pauses and breaks, namely

• commas,

• semicolons and

• colons.

We also look at the Oxford comma here.

The next group is connectors and dividers, which includes

• hyphens,

• dashes,

• slashes and

• apostrophes.

The last serious lesson in on brackets.

Finally, as a reward for all that hard work, we look at some fun examples of things that can go wrong when punctuation is neglected or used incorrectly.
