The 99 Punctuation Rules is meant as an inexpensive solution until the court reporting student can purchase one or more of these references.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e80\/20 Principle: \u003cbr\u003eThe 80\/20 principle states that about 80 percent of the results come from 20 percent of the causes. Therefore, roughly 80 percent of punctuation usage comes from 20 percent of the punctuation rules. The 99 Punctuation Rules focuses on the 20 percent or the most commonly used punctuation rules.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrammar: \u003cbr\u003eThere is an initial focus on understanding grammar. You don't need to be a grammarian, but you can't punctuate well without knowing the basics of grammar and sentence structure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReferences: \u003cbr\u003eThe rules in the 99 Punctuation Rules are not my rules. They are the rules in the most current edition of LMEG, BGGP, and GRM. Other references were consulted when the LMEG, BGGP, and\/or GRM did not agree.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnlike the \"Student Edition\" of this book, the differences in the references are cited, discussed, and compared with additional references like The Chicago Manual of Style. Therefore, this work is subtitled \"Reference Edition.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51325598400735,"sku":"9781793125675","price":13.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/pYNB_bv8a-9781793125675.webp?v=1788447965"},{"product_id":"the-essential-99-punctuation-rules-for-court-reporters-workbook-paperback","title":"The Essential 99 Punctuation Rules for Court Reporters: Workbook - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJuly 2020 Update\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeveral reviews commented about typos and grammatical errors.

Practice is necessary. The student's goal should be to learn the punctuation rules in the textbook and then to practice the rules in the workbook. This way the rules become ingrained.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese exercises were developed and arranged to follow the progression of The Essential 99 Punctuation Rules For Court Reporters. There are 375 exercises that are punctuation specific (comma, semicolon, colon, etc.) and focus on one or more of the textbook rules. There are 125 \"general\" exercises that randomly cover all the textbook punctuation rules.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51326509514975,"sku":"9781794446663","price":9.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/RrjoOy8j7T9781794446663.webp?v=1788462145"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/kenneth-a-wick.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
