Punctuations

• Punctuations refer to the signs and symbols that add expressions and emotions to the sentence. It also helps in adding pauses and tone to a sentence. Some common punctuation signs are full stops, commas, question marks, exclamation marks, and so on.

• The first sentence is exclamatory. Thus it takes the exclamation mark.
