We use Punctuation Marks to separate one sentence from another or one part of a sentence from another part of a sentence.
Different Punctuation Marks-

Ex- This is a car.

Ex- What is your name?

iii) We use commas before question tags.
Ex- It’s your birthday today, isn’t it?

4. Exclamation Mark (!)- An exclamation mark is used at the end of interjections or at the end of
an exclamatory sentence.
Ex- Hurrah! We have won the match.
What a beautiful day!

5. Apostrophe (’)- i) We use an apostrophe to show possession in Nouns.
Ex- Peter’s pen
ii) When a plural word ends with s, we put the apostrophe after s.
Ex- the boys’ room
iii) We use an apostrophe to form short forms or contractions.
Ex- wasn’t, we’re, he’s etc.

6. Inverted Commas (“ ”)- We place the exact words spoken by a person within inverted commas.
