Please help me with my punctuation I find many of my sentences either have too many commas not enough full stops not enough semicolons and no exclamation marks or a dubious amount of paragraphs I would be very grateful if someone could give me some general guidelines as to when to use a comma instead of a full stop and when to use a semicolon instead of a comma I would also like to know if it is acceptable in modern day language to use!? Thankyou Thank you, not thankyou. Anyway, I would advise contacting a business forum. They know all about commerce. |

I wouldn't worry too much about punctuation.
If u get it wrong the punctuation police will inform u.
I just type out, add the odd comma, sometimes even use a ; or. or ..... or - or...........whatever.
