Points are an important part of the English language, and are used to separate ideas, add emphasis, and create structure, and are be divided into two main categories: punctuation marks and conjunctions. Punctuation marks include periods, commas, question marks, exclamation points, colons and semicolons. These marks help to make the meaning of a sentence clear by separating words or phrases that have different meanings or functions. For example, a period is used to indicate the end of a sentence while a comma is used to separate items in a list or two independent clauses in one sentence. Conjunctions are words that join together two parts of a sentence such as nouns or verbs. Common conjunctions include "and," "but," "or," "so" and "because." They can be used to connect ideas within sentences or between sentences in order to create cohesive thoughts and paragraphs. Points play an important role in English grammar by helping writers express their ideas clearly and concisely. Knowing how to use them correctly will ensure that your writing is accurate and effective for your readers.
