I know there are people who use "..." in emails to yahoo groups, for example. No "." but only "...". All their sentences ending in "...". What does that say about their personality?
I don't know, but I do it so please enlighten me about what it says about my personality. I know that it says that I am supermodel pretty...but I am not sure about the personality part...
I use 2 periods at the end of every sentence, but the last one, simply because it spaces each sentence out more making it easier to read.. When I'm not online I use proper sentence structure.
Wouldn't two spaces after each period create the same effect? I do that quite a bit to show a longer pause than a comma, but to show that it wasnt the end of the current thought. I dunno.... just makes sense to me.
I...used...to...overuse...it...in....highschool...because...it's...the...best...punctuation...mark...ever. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
I do it at the end of some sentances. It's simply to indicate a trailing off thought. That it's a break in the sentance but not nessecarily in the thoughts behind the sentance...hmm...or, in some cases, people use it in lieu of a comma...to break a sentance apart...I wonder... I must say, I think I do over-use it...especially part way through sentances, but, I don't end all sentances with it. 'course, to use it at the end of every sentance? Doesn't say much about teh personality...just that they have poor punctuation...
I'll do it every once in a while if I can't figure out how to punctuate something correctly. =x I hate reading posts with excessive ellipses, though. It just looks too dramatic.
lol, it's okay...but you don't use '...' at the end of every sentance. =D Probably don't use it any more than I do, not that my grammer and punctuation is by any means flawless. >.<
Yea, that's what i use it for too. It's certainly not as bad as a sentace that reads: OMG! Wat u do that 4? I was JK. LOLZ
