Brackets
1.
Brackets are used when you
add something to your writing.
My
pal
Snozzy
(who
has
red
hair)
is
an
Everton
supporter.
2.
The
sentence
should
be
complete,
even
if
the
contents
of
brackets
are
removed.
The rock band (who were in Liverpool for a gig) appeared on TV that
night.
3.
When
brackets
are
used
at
the
end
of
a
sentence,
the
full
stop
falls outside the
bracket
(like
this
one).
4.
The
writing
inside
brackets
should
be
as
short
as
possible,
so
as
not
to
interrupt
the
flow
of
the
sentence.
5.
You
should
only
use
brackets
occasionally.
If
you
use
them
too
frequently,
they
create
a
choppy
effect. |
