Here are some examples of how to use exclamation marks in sentences:
* "The sun was shining brightly! The birds were singing! It was a perfect day."
* "He's not coming?! I thought he said he would be here!"

* "I love you! I can't live without you!"
By using exclamation marks effectively, you can add emotion and emphasis to your writing and make it more engaging for your readers.
