Punctuation Inside or Outside Quotes? Master the Rule with Examples | in Roman Urdu/Hindi

Quotes ke andar punctuation lagana hai ya bahar? Ye ek aisa sawal hai jo har English learner ko kabhi na kabhi confuse karta hai. Is blog mein hum is rule ko simple language mein samjhayenge, examples ke sath, taake aap kabhi bhi galti na karein.

📌 American vs. British English

Sabse pehle, aapko ye samajhna hoga ki punctuation inside ya outside quotes ka rule American aur British English mein alag hota hai:

• American English: Punctuation hamesha quotes ke andar jaata hai (mostly).
• British English: Punctuation logical hona chahiye – jo sentence ke sense pe depend karta hai.

✅ American English Examples

She said, "I'm going to the store."
(Period is inside the quotes)

Did he just say, "Let's go"?
(Question mark outside kyunki main sentence question hai)

✅ British English Examples

She said, "I'm going to the store".
(Period outside – logical punctuation)

Did he just say, "Let's go"?
(Same as American – punctuation sentence pe depend karta hai)

💡 Tip to Remember

Agar aap American English follow kar rahe ho (jo zyada common hai writing aur blogging mein), to:

• Commas and periods = always inside quotes
• Question marks and exclamation = depend karta hai sentence pe
