PUNCTUATION.
If the proper stops are left out, the meaning of a sentence may be doubtful. Take, for example, the toast at a public dinner:
Woman without her man is a brute.
This might mean that woman without man is a brute. Punctuate the sentence correctly by the right use of the comma, and you will see that the meaning is quite different. Thus: Woman, without her, man is a brute.
