In this first post of the series, I have decided to examine three punctuation symbols that are used in writing but are often confused and consequently ignored by many people – the dash (-), semicolon (;) and colon (:).
在这个系列的第一篇文章中，我决定剖析三个标点符号，它们是大家在写作中会经常使用的，但也是经常感到困惑和经常忽略的符号----破折号(-),分号 (;) 和冒号 (:)
I found this extremely helpful and informative infographic prepared by Grammar Net. According to Grammar Net: “ Dashes, semicolons and colons are potent punctuation. They add clarity, call attention to sentence elements and improve the “flow,” but they also add drama and are destructive if over-used.
我发现一个由语法网准备的一个非常有帮助、涵盖了有用信息的信息图。根据语法网定义：破折号、分号和冒号都是有效的标点符号。他们增加了句子成分的清晰度，吸引人注意并提高句子的连贯性，但是如果使用过度，也会增加句子的戏剧性，对句子造成破坏性。
This infographic provides a clear explanation of how to use these symbols. Let me know what you think. The infographic refers to period as a punctuation symbol. “Period” is American English. “Full Stop” is British English.
这张信息图对如何使用这些符号给出了一个清晰的阐述。让我知道你是怎么想的。信息图涉及到了作为标点符号的句号。“period”(句号)是美式英语的表达。“Full stop”(句号)是英式英语的表达。
