Question

Punctuation marks are used for all of the following except one. Which one is it?
Options
A to show possessive case in proper and common nouns
B to indicate stretches of direct speeches in a discourse
C to separate subordinate idea from major ones in a sentence
D to indicate a writer's background
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Punctuation marks are structural elements within a text used for clarity, such as showing possession (apostrophe), indicating direct speech (quotation marks), and separating ideas (commas). They do not provide biographical information about the author.

Hint

An author's background is found in a biography or an 'About the Author' section, not in punctuation.
