ponctuation .] (
Gram .)
The act or art of punctuating or pointing a writing or discourse ;
the art or mode of dividing literary composition into sentences ,
and members of a sentence ,
by means of points ,
so as to elucidate the author '
s meaning .
[
1913 Webster ]
Note :
Punctuation ,
as the term is usually understood ,
is chiefly performed with four points :
the period [.],
the colon [:],
the semicolon [;],
and the comma [,].
Other points used in writing and printing ,
partly rhetorical and partly grammatical ,
are the note of interrogation [?],
the note of exclamation [!],
the parentheses [()],
the dash [--],
and brackets [].
It was not until the 16th century that an approach was made to the present system of punctuation by the Manutii of Venice .
With Caxton ,
oblique strokes took the place of commas and periods .
