Know Your Punctuation : Doreen Lobo

“ Punctuation is the act or practice of inserting standardized marks or signs in written matter to clarify the meaning and separate structural units.”

Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary

Another English prof wrote:
Today Prof Smith cannot teach his classes.
A student making a joke deleted the C, thus
Today Prof Smith cannot teach his lasses,
The Prof came by and deleted the L, so,
Today Prof Smith cannot teach his asses.

Man says woman is impossible to understand
Man, says woman, is impossible to understand

Let's eat kids!
Let's eat, kids.

A prisoner, said the judge, is guilty.
A prisoner said the judge is guilty.
