Grammar Rules Project
I think it is interesting that punctuation can change the meaning of a sentence. Some writers don't think about this.
For example, "Keep drinking Haymitch." A comma is needed after "drinking" or the name of the drink is "Haymitch." This was a sentence from an advertisement about the movie "The Hunger Games."
I found two more examples in the book Eats, Shoots & Leaves written by Lynne Truss.
Page nine includes the following sentences:
"A woman, without her man, is nothing."
"A woman: without her, man is nothing."
