What is the worlds largest punctuation mark?

This is a fun question! There isn't really a definitive "largest" punctuation mark in the world, as size is relative and depends on the context.

Here are some ways to interpret this question:

* Literally: You could argue the period is the largest since it's a full stop.

* Historically: The full stop (period) is one of the oldest punctuation marks, dating back to ancient times.

* By visual size: The exclamation mark can be quite large and impactful in some fonts.

* By impact: A comma can drastically change the meaning of a sentence.

So, the answer really depends on how you define "largest"!
