minus-squarekamen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·4 days agoWhat’s up with putting a period in the middle of a sentence?
minus-squareZink@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·4 days agoIf you zoom in, it looks like that thing is actually a messed up comma that barely has a tail. It’s like the spork of punctuation!

minus-squarekamen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·4 days agoYep, I noticed that, but I’ve also noticed a lot of people doing this in writing. It’s weird.
minus-squareWindAqueduct@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 days agoA lot of people put a period instead of a comma in the middle of an “if, then” statement. I don’t know why.
minus-squarekamen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 days agoYeah, that’s what I’m referring to as well. If one sentence doesn’t make sense on its own, then it shouldn’t have a period at the end. Maybe complex sentences are too difficult for some people…
