The Tibetan Minority（西藏少数民族）

书、笔、纸、墨水。

Books, pens, paper, ink.

大家看看上面的句子，句中用的是什么标点呢？相信谁都会说是：顿号和句号啦。在英文句子里，也有顿号(、)和小圈儿句号(。)吗？上面的句子以英文来写的话，就应该是：

Let's take a look at the above sentence. What punctuation is used in the sentence? I believe everyone will say: stop and full stop. In English sentences, there are also stop (,) and small circle full stop (. )? If the above sentence is written in English, it should be:

Book， pen， paper， ink。

可见在英文里是不用顿号和中文式句号的。标点符号在中、英文里的写法和用法有好多差别。下面就让我们从一个中文里所没有的标点开始吧。

*Show possessive (there are many changes in possessive, please talk about it after describing it in detail)

* 缩写式
