When it comes to writing, there are certain grammar elements, like


punctuation and capitalization, that are particularly important – to
make your writing both grammatically correct and a joy to read.

Learn about the importance of these elements with us, and how to
improve yours! 

Why are Punctuation and Capitalization important?

Punctuation and Capitalization help to make your message meaningful


and clear – they tell the reader how to read your sentences. 

1. Punctuation

Different punctuation marks have different functions:

  Full stop (.) tells you where a sentence ends.


 Comma (,) helps separate different sections in a sentence, items
in a list etc.
 Question mark (?) indicates a question.
 Apostrophe (‘) is used in place of letters, to make a contraction
(e.g. “it is”  - “it’s”).
 …and so on!

Wrongly used punctuation can confuse your reader, or make


your writing sound unpolished. 

Common mistakes include:

 Missing punctuation marks

e.g. “Its raining.” – should be “It’s (it is) raining.”

 Using punctuation marks where not needed

e.g. “I gave him, a book.” – no (,) needed after “him.”

 Overusing punctuation marks 

e.g. “I’m so happy!!” – one (!) is enough.

2. Capitalization

 The 2 main places where capitalization is required are:

 At the beginning of a sentence. e.g. “Today is a good day.”

 For proper nouns (names of people, places, etc.). e.g. “Robin


lives in Canada.”

 While this may not seem important, using capitalization correctly


makes it easier for your reader to understand you.
 
How to Improve
There are many simple strategies:

 Read more.

 Make a list of punctuation and their rules. (Our English trainers


can help you do this more easily!)

 Practice writing.

Marks of punctuation play very important role in giving intended meaning to


the language. Use of wrong mark of punctuation or even wrong placement
of mark of punctuation can change the meaning of the sentence completely
and sometimes even convert the sentence to complete nonsense.
The importance of correct marks of punctuation has been brought out clearly in following article.
Material has been collected from various sources on the net and from various books of grammar
in preparing this article.

 Pardon Impossible, to be sent to Siberia.


 Pardon, impossible to be sent to Siberia
Czar Alexander the third had once sentenced a man to certain death by writing on the warrant-
Pardon impossible, to be sent to Siberia. His wife, Czarina Maria, saved life of this man, by
changing position of comma as shown above. Authorities set the man free.

The comma is considered a real villain among marks of punctuation. Wrong placement of
comma can give different meaning to sentence depending upon where it is placed. Consider
following sentences:

 Let us eat, daddy. &


 Let us eat daddy.
In the first sentence daddy is being called for dinner. However, in the second sentence, daddy
himself has become an item to be eaten. Omission of comma in this case has converted the first
sentence to complete non sense.

 Hang him, not let him free &


 Hang him not, let him free.
In above sentences, just shifting comma by one position has completely changed the meaning of
the sentence.

In 1872, wrong placement of comma cost millions of dollars in import duties to US government.
In a tariff act passed in 1872, list of duty free items included: “Fruit plants, tropical & semi
tropical.”

A government clerk put the mark of comma at wrong place, which made the sentence
read: “Fruit, plants tropical & semi tropical.”

Importers successfully contested in the courts that the passage as written meant that all tropical
& semitropical plants were exempted from payment of duty.

Following pairs of sentences can also convince anybody regarding correct use of marks of
punctuation:

 The murder protested his innocence an hour after he was hanged.


 The murder protested his innocence. An hour after, he was hanged.
The first sentence without comma is a complete nonsense. It means that the murderer protested
his innocence after he was hanged!

1. Private- No swimming allowed.


2. Private? No. Swimming allowed.
In the second sentence, addition of a question mark and full stop has converted a private property
to public property.

 I am sorry you cannot come with us.


 I am sorry. You cannot come with us.

1. The butler stood by the door & called the guests’ names.
2. The butler stood by the door & called the guests names.

 The criminal, says the judge, should be hanged.


 The criminal says, the judge should be hanged.
Shifting the comma by just one place has completely changed the meaning of the sentence. In the
second sentence, it is not the criminal but the judge who should be hanged.

& finally

 The inspector said, “The teacher is a fool.”


 “The inspector,” said the teacher “is a fool.” (Here the inspector is
called a fool)
Above sentences are enough to prove importance of use of not only correct mark of punctuation,
but their correct placement also.
