Exclamation Points !

Exclamation points are not used very often. They are used to give emphasis. Think of it this way, if you use an exclamation point, you are yelling at your reader, but you don't want to yell at him or her too often or the exclamation loses its force. You don't want to use these punctuation marks too often. You could be yelling for joy, anger, fear, surprise or impatience For example:

Don't walk on the grass!

You are commanding the person not to walk on the grass. If you were talking to a person, you might be yelling at them.

Happy Birthday!

This would also be yelling, but you would be happy if you were shouting this to someone.
