1. Period (.)

Period sentence ke end mein use hota hai jab hum koi statement complete kar rahe hain.

Example:

Yahaan period (.) sentence ko complete dikhata hai.

2. Comma (,)

Comma chhote pauses dikhata hai, aur items ko list mein alag karne ke liye use hota hai.

Example: 

• I bought apples, bananas, and oranges.

Yahaan comma (,) alag-alag items ko dikhata hai.

3. Question Mark (?)

Yeh questions ya sawal ke end mein aata hai.

Example: 

• What is your name?

Yahaan question mark (?) dikhata hai ki yeh ek sawal hai.

4. Exclamation Point (!)

Yeh strong emotions ya surprise dikhata hai.

Example: 

• Wow! That's amazing!

Yahaan exclamation point (!) excitement aur amazement dikhata hai.

Intermediate Punctuation

1. Apostrophe (') 

Yeh possession aur contractions ke liye use hota hai.

Possession: 

• Sara's book is on the table.
• Sara ki kitaab table par hai.

Yahaan apostrophe (') dikhata hai ki kitaab Sara ki hai (possession - kisi ka kuch hona).

Contraction (short form): 

• Don't go there.
• Wahan mat jao. 

Yahaan "don’t" mein apostrophe "do not" ko short form mein likhne mein madad karta hai.

2. Colon (:)

Yeh kisi list ko introduce karne ke liye ya important information batane ke liye use hota hai.

Example: 

• You need to bring: pens, books, and paper.
• Tumhe laana zaruri he: pens, books, and paper.

Yahaan colon (:) list ko introduce karta hai.

3. Semicolon (;)

Semicolon do independent sentences ko jodne mein madad karta hai jab unka meaning closely related ho.

Example: 

• I wanted to go for a walk; however, it started raining.
• I walk ke liye jana chahta tha; lekin tabhi barish shuru ho gayi.

Yahaan semicolon (;) do connected ideas ko jodta hai.

4. Quotation Marks (“ ”)

Quotation marks kisi ke exact words ya dialogues ko show karne ke liye use hote hain.

Example: 

• She said, “I’ll be there soon.” 
• Usne kaha, "mein jaldi wahan par rahun"

Yahaan quotation marks (") batate hain ki yeh exact words hain jo usne kahe.

Titles: Books, articles, aur movies ke titles ko highlight karne ke liye bhi use ho sakta hai, jaise “The Great Gatsby.”
