Hi,

I'm little bit confuse, When do we use the "full stop" ?

Hi,

In N. America, a full stop is called a period.

Use it at the end of a sentence that is a statement, ie a sentence that is not a question or an exclamation.

Would you like to write a paragraph that we can check for you?

We'd be happy to!

Best wishes, Clive

Thank you very much (:)) Smile

But how can I make sure, whether the sentence is statement or not?

Does it for example contain a special verb?

Could you explain to me please?

Sometimes I get confused whether I put comma or period!

Hi,
That's quite a large topic.
Have you studied 'clauses', eg main clause, subordinate clause?
