Punctuation Assistance

Post by Tracy Mitchell » Mon Feb 19, 2018 11:02 am

An excellent site:

 An English professor wrote these words:
 
“A woman without her man is nothing”
 
on the chalkboard and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.
 
All the males in the classroom wrote:
 
“A woman, without her man, is nothing.”
 
All the females in the class wrote:
 
“A woman: without her, man is nothing.”
 
Punctuation is powerful - use it!
