EX 245 TRANSLATE INTO UZBEK AND LEARN BY HEART.
Full stop / Period [.]

A full stop or period is used:

• 
  to mark the end of a sentence that is not a direct question and does not express a strong feeling.
  

I’ll meet you outside the cinema. Be there by half past eight.

Notice that a comma (,) can only mark the end of a sentence which is in quotation marks and followed by a reporting verb:

“I think this bag is yours,” she said.

• 
  to mark shortened words and in people’s titles (this is becoming dated in Britain)
  

e.g. (=for example) · no. (=number)

Feb. 17^th (=February 17^th)

Mr. James · Mrs. Drew · Ms. Talbot · Dr. Grey

• 
  as one way to separate the numbers in dates and times
  

13.7.84 (=13 July 1984)
