EN: punctuation
These are the traffic signs of writing. The comma is the yellow light (slow down), the period is the red light (full stop), and the question mark is the "Saan po papunta 'to?" sign. Using the wrong bantasan is like texting "K." instead of "Ok." — the meaning changes completely. It's the difference between "Let's eat, lola!" and "Let's eat lola!". Punctuation saves lives!
