Punctuation is Powerful...

Punctuation is Powerful...

A Grammar Professor wrote on the blackboard the following:

"A woman without her man is nothing."


The students were asked to punctuate it correctly.

All the males in the class wrote:

"A woman, without her man, is nothing."

All the females in the class wrote:

"A woman: without her, man is nothing."


Punctuation is powerful....is it not!

I despair at how punctuation is widely ignored today.  A perfect example of the different interpretation we get with the effective use of punctuation.

Love this in how it shows the power of punctuation. Sometimes it’s so underrated.
