Punctuation that changes meaning, sentence 14
A question mark or exclamation mark already ends a sentence, so no full stop goes after it.
Who acts: question mark, full stop · What happens: end, go · To what, where: sentence
This is a sentence of the lesson «Punctuation that changes meaning» of the language course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (question mark, full stop), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
