Question

Punctuate the following using capital letters wherever necessary:
my brother said to me you should not waste your time on sundays

Answer 1

Hint: Punctuation is the use of spacing, traditional signs, and some typographical devices to help in the comprehension and proper reading of written text, whether read silently or aloud.Punctuation is used in sentences to add meaning, clarification, and tension. To arrange and organise your writing, you use punctuation marks.

Complete answer:
Punctuation adds silent intonation to our writing. We use a comma, a period, an exclamation point, or a question mark to pause, interrupt, emphasise, or question. Correct punctuation improves the consistency and accuracy of writing by allowing the writer to stop, pause, or emphasise specific sections of the sentence.

Since my' begins the sentence, we must use the capital 'M.'
'My brother said to me' denotes that the sentence is written in direct expression. As a result, we must have a comma after ‘said to me.'
As this is a simple sentence, the remainder of the sentence must be written in double inverted commas and must end with a full stop
Also, since it is the name of a day, 'Sundays' should begin with a capital 'S.'

My brother said to me, "You should not waste your time on Sundays." Is the correct answer.

Note: Punctuation refers to marks, not words, that aid in the structure of a sentence and assist the reader in understanding or navigating the sentence: Commas, , periods, semicolons, colons quotes, and apostrophes are examples of punctuation. Punctuation indicates to the reader where sentences begin and end.
