Punctuation Saves Lives

Punctuation Saves Lives Punctuation saves lives! What? How come? Yes. Here is the example: Lets eat kitty. (Meaning that, we will be eating a cat.) Lets eat, kitty. (Meaning that, you and your friend kitty will be starting to eat.) The above example is a punctuation rule. Your tutor would put it formally like this: Use commas to set off the name, nickname, or title of a person you have directly addressed. More Examples: Yes, old friend, I will. Good day, Captain.
