The Fragment

One of the rules that we need most in this field: Punctuate a fragment exactly the same way that you would punctuate the grammatically complete sentence that it stands for. ...Q What time did you leave? ...A I left at 10:00. I was a little late. ...Q What time did you leave? ...A At 10:00. I was a little late. ...I am sorry. I think I misspoke. ...Sorry. I think I misspoke. ...That's okay. I will just ask the question again. ...Okay. I will just ask the question again. ...He had been in that position for ten years; is that right? ...He had been in that position for ten years; right? And if you agree with the first four, you have to agree with the last one. :-) Happy punctuating! Margie
