Select all that apply. Which of the following can be used to mark interruptions? semicolons, dashes, commas, exclamation points, colons

Respuesta :

Answer:

Dashes and commas

Explanation:

One of the functions of dashes and commas is to mark an interruption from the rest of a sentence. These punctuation marks can be used in pairs (when they are in the middle of a sentence) or alone (mainly when they are at the end of the sentence) and their main difference is that while commas are used to mark off a weak interruption, dashes mark a strong interruption.

Examples:

He loved me — that's what he had said— but he left abruptly and never came back.

Mark wanted a family — or so he believed.

I liked your company, of course, but I had to go home.

Answer:

dashes and commas

Explanation:

for example-"Jack, (pause) will you do the dishes?"
