Punctuation is very important whatever the language, but in English seems to be a bit more difficult to see it. This is so serious that sometimes I have difficulty understanding some texts. It seems that in Latin languages and there countries it is more usual to use punctuation in a wide way.
I studied grammar quite well at school so I'm pretty good at using punctuation. However, in English, I'm struggling to put commas in the correct places.
Hello, I want to know that in which section of your social networking programs can I ask questions about English grammar and be sure that it will be answered by an English expert?
You can ask us questions on any of our social media platforms and we will do our best to answer!
@@bbclearningenglish Thanks.
For the first question, why did you use an exclamation mark (!) instead of a dot sign (.) at the end of your reply sentence?
Yes punctuation matter in all languages
