A full stop is a common punctuation mark in our life. The appearance of a full stop often indicates the end of a sentence. According to the function of periods, sentences can be divided into four types: declarative sentences, imperative sentences, interrogative sentences and exclamatory sentences.
Usage of full stop and examples
1. A period is used at the end of a statement. For example, modesty makes people progress, and conceit makes people lag behind.
2. Used after an imperative sentence with a soothing tone. Let's go back.
3. Used after complex sentences. For example, an old hero is ambitious; In the year of the martyr's tomb, we are full of ambition.
Note: Commas or semicolons can be used between clauses in a complex sentence, and a full stop is not used after a clause in a sentence, only after a clause at the end of a sentence.
4. Used after ellipsis. For example, what's your name? Li Mei. (In the sentence, "Li Mei" is the ellipsis of "My name is Li Mei") 5. It is used after a sentence without a subject. For example, don't wait for leisure. The youth's head is white, and the youth is empty and sorrowful.
6. Used after a single word sentence. For example, good. (In a specific situation, the word "good" means the complete meaning that everyone understands.) Note: works, letters, documents, etc. can be used after the time, place, signature and other words are indicated.
What is the difference between a full stop and an exclamation point

How to occupy the case when double quotation marks and full stops appear at the same time
When double quotation marks and full stops occur at the same time, double quotation marks and full stops occupy one space. There are two cases:
First, the full stop is before the double quotation mark, and then the full stop is at the lower left corner of the grid, and the double quotation mark is at the upper right corner of the grid. The other is that the double quotation marks are in the upper left corner of the grid and the period is in the lower right corner of the grid.
The relationship between double quotation marks and periods can also be used in the relationship between double quotation marks and other periods, such as commas, exclamation marks, question marks, etc.
