Talk:Parenthesis (rhetoric)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If a parenthesis ends a sentence, is the period outside the parenthesis, or within? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.8.17.247 (talk • contribs)

It's within if the whole sentence is enclosed in parentheses, and outside if the parethetical comment is just part of the sentence. Michael Hardy 16:39, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
