What is the correct punctuation for sentence Wow what a great surprise shouted Ernesto?

The correct punctuation for the sentence "Wow what a great surprise shouted Ernesto?" is:

"Wow, what a great surprise!" shouted Ernesto.

Here's why:

* Exclamation Mark: The sentence expresses strong emotion (surprise), so it should end with an exclamation mark (!).

* Comma: The comma separates the introductory phrase ("Wow, what a great surprise") from the main part of the sentence ("shouted Ernesto"). This improves readability and clarifies the sentence structure.

* Capital Letter: The word "shouted" starts the main part of the sentence, so it should be capitalized.
