Here are some tips for using punctuations correctly when writing a novel: * * I. Punctuation at the end of a sentence ** 1. Declarative sentences and soothing imperative sentences ended with a full stop, such as "I'm in a good mood today." Please don't smoke in public." This meant a pause after a sentence. 2. Questions, rhetorical questions, and rhetorical questions ended with question marks, such as "Who told you this news? Is it reliable?" "You've done something wrong. Shouldn't you take the initiative to admit your mistake?" It was an auxiliary symbol of tone and intonation, indicating the pause and corresponding tone after the sentence. 3. Exclamations and heavy, strong imperative sentences were ended with exclamation marks, such as "What a kind old man he is!" "Get out immediately!" A pause at the end of a sentence. * * 2. Use of Punctuation in Sentences ** 1. * * Comma ** - It indicates a pause in the middle of a sentence. The pause is less than a semi-colon and greater than a pause. For example,"The grapes in Grape Valley are really colorful, like purple, dark purple, green, red…" In particular, when there are mood particles such as "ah","ya","la" between the parallel words of the sentence, use commas between the parallel components instead of pauses. 2. * * Semicolon ** - It was mainly used to separate two sentences that had a certain relationship (coordination, transition, continuation, causality, etc., mostly with coordination). It could also be the first level of the clause of multiple complex sentences, or the parallel part of a big sentence, such as "Faith is a stone that rubs the fire of the stars; Faith is a fire that lights up the lamp of hope; Faith is a lamp that lights up the road at night; Faith is a road that leads you to dawn." 3. * * Colon ** - It usually means a pause after a hint or a hint below or above. "Congratulations on your good results in the sports meet." It was also used after words such as "say","think","is","prove","announce","for example","as follows", etc., to indicate the following, such as "The neighbor advised him to repair the sheeppen and plug that hole!" 4. * *** - It was a pause between parallel words or phrases. It had two main uses in Chinese. The first is to separate the same kind of parallel things, usually a single word, word, or short sentence, with a pause shorter than a commas, such as "There are a variety of goods in the supermarket, including vegetables, fruits, snacks, daily necessities, electrical appliances, etc." The second is to separate the serial number and the text using Chinese characters as the serial number, such as "I am going to talk about two questions: First, what is logic? Second, how to learn logic well?" * * 3. Use of Symbols ** 1. * * quote ** - It was divided into double quote and single quote. Use double quote marks first, then use single quote marks if necessary. Its functions include expressing a quote (as in,"I like the poem 'I was born to be useful.'), Special title ("People all over the country are actively donating to Project Hope "), Special meaning ("The younger sister happily mounted the 'horse' and hopped forward."), Denial, sarcasm, and ridicule ("You're really 'filial' to pick on your own mother!"), Lu Xun had carved a small 'early' character on the table. 2. * * Dash ** - It can be used to indicate a change in topic or tone, continuation of voice, explanation, change of topic, supplementary explanation, introduction, summary, etc. Sometimes it is also used in front of the title of the article, such as "A short and sturdy middle-aged Japanese man--Boss Uchiyama walked over." (Explanation)"'Selling-fans!'" (Prolonged voice) 3. * * Ellipses ** - Generally speaking, it means that the text is omitted, the speech is intermittent, the meaning is not finished, silence, etc. The basic form was six small dots (…) in the middle line, taking up the space of two words. Like,"But…I really didn't do it on purpose." "You're really…""I like to read a lot of books. Prose, poetry, novels…" To use ellipses correctly, don't use ellipses all over the text, and don't use a series of commas to indicate an ellipsis. 4. * * Title ** - It was used to indicate the title of books, articles, newspapers, documents, operas, songs, pictures, etc. It was also used to indicate the names of works closely related to written media such as songs, movies, and television dramas. In addition, the specifications of the punctuations also needed to be paid attention to. For example, commas and periods were written in the lower left space; question marks and exclamation marks were written in the left half space; double quote marks were written in the lower left space first, and then the other was written according to the rules; dashes connected the center of two squares; ellipses were written in three dots in one square, and so on. Also, don't abuse the use of punctuations in the creation, avoid using long strings of symbols to change the scene. At the same time, pay attention to the use of Chinese punctuations, don't use full-width and half-width symbols. Read more exciting novels for free
