PUNCTUATION

Please come here.
Eat your vegetables.
2. A question mark ( ? ) ends an interrogative sentence and questions.
Do you live in Pasadena?

3. An exclamation mark ( ! ) ends an exclamatory sentence (a sentence that contains a lot of emotion).

Stop!
Don’t call me again!
4. A comma ( , ) separates items in a list.
