Point's names
Hey there! In my english class a student said that his former teacher taught him the names of the point in difference situations (.), for example when we use a point in a electronic address is different than we use a point in a normal sentence. Is it true? What is the name for each situation?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!
