I bet we are all familiar with a lot of punctuation marks especially with its uses. Oftentimes, there are a lot of writers, mostly likely those who are beginners in the field of writing, who are not fully equipped with the use of each punctuation mark. You should always bear in your mind that these punctuations are usually take part in your content and the correct way of using these punctuations must be properly observed.
Among the rest of the punctuation marks, we should study closely more on the proper use of exclamation point in our sentence. Whatever your purpose in writing any form of piece whether it is for your school requirements or for the sake of your job, what really matters is that you know how to control the flow of your content. As to what your ideas would dictate you about the topic you are working on and while writing it down.
If your topic is so complicated, then I bet you should be aware on how are you going to place an exclamation mark in relation to your strong and powerful sentence. A writer should be able to organize how his or her writings would start and end up to. Although periods, quotation marks and commas are commonly use in our writing piece, exclamations are often use when we state any strong points, warnings or any strong expressions that you use in your contents depending on the topic that you are discussing.
The greener you are as a writer, the more generous you usually act with exclamation points. Taught during early grammar school as an important punctuation and typically allowed to fester by grammar software, it really needs to be used less in writing � even less than the few times it is usually employed now.
I�ve seen someone write that you get a total of three exclamation points to use in your writing career and no more. While that exaggerates the idea, it makes the point perfectly clear � exclamations can be done without in most forms of writing without the littlest negative repercussion.
When a sentence ends in an exclamation point, it usually sounds either tacky or out-of-place. If you need to add an exclamation to stress an idea, it�s a good sign that your writing needs some work. If you�ve ever written anything with this kind of punctuation, try reading through it again � you�ll find that you can usually strike it out and rewrite without much problems.
Of course, there are pieces where exclamations come naturally. In fact, that�s the only time you should ever use one. When a sentence, thought or expression naturally requires it, the necessity is obvious � otherwise, don�t use them.
For business writing, in particular, exclamation points are a huge no-no. It accomplishes nothing yet can paint you as an unnecessarily rude individual, especially when you generously add them to your emails and other forms of correspondence. Imagine me, for instance, ending this piece with an exclamation point. What does it do to help? Answer me!
