Do you have a full stop after piece of punctuation?

That's a great question! It depends on the punctuation mark and the context.

Here's the general rule:

* Periods (full stops): You don't put a full stop after a period.

* Other punctuation: You do put a full stop after other punctuation marks like commas, semicolons, question marks, and exclamation points, if the sentence continues.

Example:

"This is a sentence." (Correct)

"This is a sentence...but it's a little strange." (Incorrect)

"This is a sentence; however, it's not very interesting." (Correct)
