      Why Punctuation Matters

      Consider:


      A woman, without her man, is nothing.

      A woman: without her, man is nothing.


      Punctuation is our friend.

      I. Totally. Argee. With. You. On. That. =)

      Punctuation is just written what you say. Pauses in speach allso matter a great deal. You could allso say those 2 lines in a complete different way.

      So yes, Punctuation is as important as saying things in a way it makes the right amount of sence.

      I agree with you, Ex. Punctuation is the crux of written communication.
