I have found that the most difficult grammar rule is the use of a period. It’s been a while since I learned this, but if I remember correctly, a sentence usually ends with some sort of punctuation; the most common being a period. I know that was one of the first grammar rules that we learned, but I always seem to forget about it. Just about all my text messages are completely void of periods, and as you can see, none of my blog titles have periods at the end of them.
It seems like the older I get the fewer periods and punctuations I use. It seems like I’m not the only one who struggles with this problem. I know most people don’t use periods in text messages, in emails and in their blog titles. Also, it seems that Hollywood hates periods too. I can’t think of any movies titles that have periods in them. Colons seem to be okay though, colons show up all the time in movie titles. The same thing goes for book titles, newspaper articles and video games. I think that because it is so simple, people think it is unnecessary and don’t feel the need to use one
The simple things are the most likely to be overlooked.
ReplyDeleteThis is very true Catherine, but it seems as if you have mastered the art of using proper punctuation
