Part 1: Common Stumbling Blocks in Punctuation

One space or two after a period? This class covers the basics of punctuation with more nuance than you might have learned in elementary school. Topics include smart quotes, the hyphen is not a dash, what ellipses are and aren’t, parentheses, restrictive and appositives with commas (or not), serial comma, colons and semicolons, period placement with quote marks and parentheses, and question marks.

Check out You’ve Been Punc’d, Part 2 for even more punctuation lessons!
