英语标点

㈠ 标点符号的英文标点

标点符号在书面语中主要用来明确语句的含义，标示一个句子或句子中各个成分的起止，以及彼此间的语法或语义上的关系。英语中使用的标点符号主要有下面这些：
句点：英国英语（BrE）：Full Stop；美国英语（AmE）：Period，“.”
问号：Question Mark，“?”
感叹号：Exclamation Mark，“!”
逗号：Comma，“,”
冒号：Colon，“:”
省略号：Ellipsis (众数：Ellipses)，“...”
分号：Semicolon，“;”
连字符：Hyphen，“-”连接号：En Dash，“–”
破折号：Em Dash，“—”
括号：Parentheses，小括号（圆括号）“( )”（parenthesis; round brackets）；中括号“[ ]”（a square bracket）；大括号“{ }”（curly brackets; braces）
引号：Quotation Marks，双引号“”（quote）；单引号“'”（single quotation marks）
缩写及所有格符号：Apostrophe，“'”
撇号（’） (Apostrophe) 用于分隔 并列的词和短语（To separate words and phrases in a series） We ordered a hamburger, French fries, apple pie, and a coke. (lon) He awoke, ate his breakfast , got dressed , and went to work. (tofel) He walked with long , slow , steady , deliberate strides. (lon) He went across the sidewalk , down the street , and into the bar and grill. (tofel) 用于分开同位语 Her mother , a Canadian , died when she was five. (col) Tom, I’d like you to meet my friend , George. (fofel) People , old and young , all came out to greet the guests. (zha) 用于分开表示对比的词、短语或从句，以及表示转题的词或词组（To set off a contrast word, phrase, or clause; a transitional word or expression）
a. 分开表示对比的词、短语或从句 She was not , however , aware of the circumstances. (dic) I , on the contrary , envy you because you can work and choose your work. (dic) In contrast to his brother , he was always considerate in his treatment of others. (dic) We are enjoying ourselves , although the weather is bad. (cge) Elizabeth was lively and talkative , whereas her sister was quiet and reserved. (cge) b. 分开表示转题的词或词组 Incidentally , she found the book you asked for. (dic) I went to college. Meanwhile , all my friends got well-paid job. (lon) I want to tell you about my trip, but , by the way , how is your mother? (lon) This wanted a bit more thinking about, and , in the meantime , there were a hundred and one little things to be done. (dic) 用于yes、no、why、well等词后的句首（At the beginning of a sentence after yes、no、 why、well，etc） Yes , you are right. (dic) “Is it raining?” “No , it’s snowing.” (dic) You say he is only forty! Why , I know he is at least fifty. (dic) Well , old chap, sit down and make yourself comfortable. (dic) 用于句首的短语或从句之后（After a phrase or a clause at the beginning of a sentence） Unable to resist , Matilda agreed to betray her country. (形容词短语) (lon) From a personal point of view , I found this a good solution to the problem. (介词短语) （lon） To be perfectly frank , you are a bad driver. （不定式短语） （oxf） Having failed twice , he didn’t want to try again. (动词-ing形式) （oxf） Weakened by successive storms , the bridge was no longer safe. (动词-ed形式) （oxf） The game over , we all went home. (独立结构) （tofel） Since we live near the sea , we often go sailing. (副词从句) （lon） 用于分开直接引语（To set off direct quotations） “The radio is too loud , ”she complained. (lon) She replied , “My first thought was to protect.” (col) 如果被分开的引语的第一部分不是完整句子，则后面的引述动词后也须用逗号，引语的第二部分以小写字母开始。例如： “I wonder,” said John , “whether I can borrow your bicycle.” (lon) “That man,” I said , “never opened a window in his life.” (col) 用于标写日期、地址、学位等
日期： Tuesday , April 3 , 2001
地址： 318 First Street , Sacramento , California (门牌号和街号之间无标点)
学位： John Burke , Ph.D. , has written this book.
此外也可用于非正式信件的抬头或信末署名前的客套语。例如： Dear Philip , Sincerely yours , 用于分开非限定性形容词从句或插入语 I have invited Ann , who lives in the next flat. (oxf) These books , which you can get at any bookshop , will give you all the information you need. (oxf) The trees in that area , it is said , are mostly over thirty feet tall. (zha) We’ll have to book our tickets in advance , I’m afraid. (zha) 用于避免费解或误读 What his name is , is of no interest to me. (lon) Whatever she does , does not concern me. (lon) What one person may think of , another may not. (lon) During the summer , days become longer. (没有逗号，有可能误读为Summer days。) (lon) Soon after , the meeting was adjourned. (没有逗号，有可能误读为after the meeting。) (lon) 分号（Semicolon）
用在省去连接词的并列分句之间（Between the clauses of a compound sentence when the conjunction is omitted） The summer were wet ; the winter were dry. (tofel) Don’t lose that key ; it opens the large suitcase with my new clothes. (tofel) Some of us agree with that statement ; some disagree. (dic) Heather didn’t call until 10:15 ; we were very upset. (tofel) Taylor was, as always, a consummate actor ; with a few telling strokes he characterized King Lear magnificently. (lon) 用于隔开由hence、moreover、however、also、therefore、consequently等转题词连接的分句 （To separate clauses jointed by such transitional words as hence, moreover, however, also, therefore, also, therefore, consequently, etc） My mother is by herself ; hence I must go home now. (dic) Bicycling is good exercise ; moreover, it doesn’t pollute the air. (dic) The two sides met again today ; however, they reached no settlement. (tofel) It rained ; therefore the game was called off. (dic) The Delgado family is moving ; consequently, we’ll have new neighbours within a month. (tofel) 转题词位于句末时，前面一般用逗号，后面用句号。例如： He said that it was so; he was mistaken , however. (dic) 转题词也可放于句首，后面用逗号。例如： Nevertheless , she decided to act. (dic) 用于列举事物 Please send the stipulated items : your birth certificate, your passport and the correct fee. (lon) She asked for the following articles : an axe, a hammer, an awl and a saw. (tofel) Our main considerations are as follows : safety, speed, and glamour. (tofel) 如果所列举的事物前面有动词或介词，则不可用冒号。例如： The colors I chose were red, green, blue, and white. (tofel) This design comes in silk, stain, and cotton. (tofel) 用于注释之前 I’ve just had some good news : I’ve been offered a job in a law firm. (lon) You can’t count on him to help : he is such a busy man. (zha) The man had been drinking heavily : this, not age, explained his unsteady walk. 用于引语之前 One student commented : “He seems to know his material very well.” (lon) In his speech to the United Nations, Mr Teng said : “I come here today….” (tofel) 不过，在现代英语中，直接引语前多半用逗号。如： He said , “I am going home.” (lon) 问号（Question Mark）
用于疑问句或表示疑问的陈述句末尾。例如： She asked, “How many were in your class ? ” (tofel) What can be done to help these people ? （lon） How long have you been here ? Ten minutes ? Twenty ? Thirty ? (tofel) You are leaving already ? (lon) 撇号（Apostrophe）
用于构成名词所有格 Jim’s coat --the boss’s desk the woman’s dress --a moment’s rest somebody else’s order --everyone’s goal one month’s rent --season’s greetings 用于构成动词短语的紧缩形式 I have I’ve --will not won’t She would she’d --I am I’m 用于构成字母、数字或缩写等的复数形式 There are three I’s in that word. (lon) How many 5’s have you got? (zha) an oversupply of Ph.D.’s (博士学位获得者的过剩) (zha) 此外，在非正式的语体中，撇号也用来表示缩写的年份，因此，1984年可写成 ’84。 主要用于表示中间包入的成分是一句引语。例如： He smiled and asked, “Are you her grandson?” (lon) “You have to keep trying, Mabel,” he said. (col) 有时也可用来加在书名、报名、剧名和杂志名等东西的两端。例如： She enjoyed the article “Cities Are for Walking.” (lon) Have you read “Red Star Over China”? (zha) 或加在一个词的两端，引起人对这个词的注意。如： What’s the difference between “differ” and “differentiate”? (zha) He couldn’t spell “mnemonic”, and therefore failed to reach the finals. (lon)

㈡ 英语中有哪些标点符号

一、逗号

看似简单，但是它的用法可以找出十来种。比如：

1）用做介绍语的断句。它是在介绍性的词、短语之后使用逗号来分隔主句。例句：For the students, the most important thing is to pass the oral exam.

2）列举。逗号可以用于分隔一系列的简单内容，如：I like apples, pears and many other fruit. 再体会一下这个例子：We played the technicians, Lin, and Yao. 以及We played the technicians, Lin and Yao. 是不是有所不同？第一种情况play的对象3个都是特指的，而第二种情况则是 Lin and Yao都是technicians，实际上play的对象只有2个人。

3）分隔衬托同位语的词或短语。比如The Pakistanis, like the Australians before them, have exposed the shortcomings of the England batting order. 在这里The Pakistanis跟like the Australians before them实际上指的是同一个东西。

4）逗号也可以用来表示省略“and”或平行结构标志。比如：When it comes to eating, people differ in their tastes. 这个时候如果省去逗号则是错误的。

二、破折号

主要是用来衬托强调后 面的内容。

When the car was finally delivered—nearly three months after it was ordered—she decided she no longer wanted it.

在这种情况下， 也是可以用逗号还替代这两个破折号的，但是在语气上就没有破折号那么强烈了。

三、括号

跟破折号不同的是，它可以用来补充说明不重要的内容。比如：

The president (and his assistant) traveled by private jet.

有时候括号也容易被误用，这个时候通过将括号中的内容去掉再读一遍，如果仍然可以准确表达意思，那就说明括号的使用是正确的，否则就是错误的。比如：

The president (and his assistant) were expected to arrive by 10:00 a.m.

这里的括号使用就是错误的，因为句子想要表达的是president以及his assistant都会到达。

正确使用标点符号，可以使句式变化多样，帮助作者吸引读者的注意力。

㈦ 英语有标点符号吗

在英语里面，是有标点的。不过和汉语标点略有不同。比如：汉语的句号是一个圆圈，而在英语里面是一个圆点。望采纳。

㈧ 英语的标点符号怎么用

我认为你那句话可能有误，这句话应该这么说：Seen
from
the
moon
,our
earth
,with
water
covering
seventy
percent
of
its
surface,
appears
as
a
blue
ball.
这里的逗号相当于汉语里的破折号或小版括号，用于解释说明某权一事物。

㈨ 英文中有哪些标点符号，它的用法各是哪些

英语写作
英文标点符号的使用
句点（Full
Stop
/
Period，“.”）
问号（Question
Mark，“？”）
感叹号（Exclamation
Mark，“!”）
逗点（Comma，“,”）
冒号（Colon，“:”）
分号（Semicolon，“;”）
连字符（Hyphen，“-”）
连接号（En
Dash，“–”）
破折号（Em
Dash，“—”）
括号（Parentheses，小括号“(
)”；中括号“[]”；大括号“{}”）
引号（Quotation
Marks，双引号“"”；单引号“‘”）
缩写及所有格符号（Apostrophe，“‘”）
一、.句点
1.句点用于当一句话完全结束时。
2.句点也可以用于英文单词的缩写，如
Mrs.,
Dr.,
P.S.
等。但要注意的是当缩写的字母形成了一个单词的时候就不要使用句点。如
IBM,
DNA
等。
二、？问号
问号要用在一个直接的问句，而不是间接的。
如
How
will
you
solve
the
problem？
是正确的用法，但用在
I
wonder
how
you
will
solve
the
problem？就不对了，应该使用句点而不是问号。
另外，在客气的用语中，也是用句点而不是问号.
如
Will
you
please
give
me
a
call
tomorrow.
三、!
感叹号
感叹号用于感叹和惊叹的陈述中，在商业写作中要注意感叹号的应用，因为不恰当的使用会显得突兀及不稳重。
四、；分号
1.与中文一样，分号用于分隔地位平等的独立子句。在某些情况下，使用分号比使用句点更显出子句之间的紧密联系，另外分号也经常与连接副词
thus,
however,
therefore一起使用(放在这些词语之前)。如
I
realize
I
need
exercise;
however,
I’ll
lie
down
first
to
think
about
it.
2.在句子中如果已经使用过逗点，为了避免歧义的产生，就用分号来分隔相似的内容。如
The
employees
were
Tom
Hanks,
the
manager;
Jim
White,
the
engineer;
and
Dr.
Jack
Lee.
需要注意的是：一个完整的句子以大写字母开始，以句点结束。写英文时用逗点代替句点、分号、冒号或破折号叫“逗号错”，这正是中国学生所要避免的。请比较下列例句：
误：It
was
raining
hard,
they
could
not
work
in
the
fields.
（注意：上面句子中划横线的部分是两个不同的主语，而且逗点前后的句子是完整的-----单独拿出来都能代表一个完整的意思。因此，用逗号违反了英文规定，即一个句子只能有一套主干。）
还有很多…………

㈩ 英语中如何使用标点符号

(10)英语标点扩展阅读：

英语标点符号在“实战”中经常出现的错误，主要有以下三种类型：

1.对标点符号认识谈薄，使用起来比较随意。如：用中文句号（。）来结束句子；逗号、句号不分，大写、小写不分，乱点一气；在疑问句后也不加问号，或者在间接引语后使用问号。

误用：He came up and asked me what was the matter?

分析：本句为陈述句，所包含的问问是间接引语，自然应当用句号结尾，且要调整语序。

修改：He came up amd asked me what the matter was.

翻译：他上来问我是怎么回事。

2.对句子结构不太理解。中文句号是根据说话都的语意来使用的，即用于一段表达完整的内容之后；而英文中的句号是根据结构来用的，即每一个语法意义完整的句子后用句号。在习作中这种情况很常见。

误用1：I didn’t go to the party yesterdy.Because I had too much homework to do.

分析：此句中，because引出的句子从语法角度看并不完整，而是从属于前面一句（为原因状语从句），因而两句不能用句号隔开。

修改：I didn’t go to the party yesterday.Because I had too much homework to do.

翻译：我昨天没去参加聚会，因为我有太多的家庭作业要做。

3.中英文标点符号用法混淆。

误用1：Hearing what he said,Jack said to himself：“Should I believe him?”

分析：作为中英文兼有的标点符号，冒号在中文里常用在“说、道、讲、问、唱、回答、喊、吼”等动词的后边，或用于“比如、例如”等后，而这类情况下英文中只需用逗号表示。

修改：Hearing what he said,Jack said to himself,“Should I believe him?”

翻译：杰克听到他说的话，自言自语道：“我应该相信他吗？“
