Comma ( , ) : It is the shortest pause you put between a sentence when required.
Colon ( : ) : These are represented as a complete pause.
Question mark ( ? ) : It is used to close a interrogative sentence.
Exclamation mark ( ! ) : It is used to express some sort of sudden emotions.
Inverted Commas ( " ) : It is used to quote something that someone must have said.
Dash ( — ) : it's used to indicate abrupt stop or a sudden change of thought.
Hyphen ( – ) : (shorter than a dash) it is used to connect the parts of a compound word.
