| definition: |
An exclamation point is a mark used in writing. People put it at the end of a sentence when it is telling someone to do something--like "Close the door!" or "Come here!" People also use it to give stronger feeling to what they are saying. For example, we might write "Ouch." to say that something hurts, but we often write "Ouch!" instead because it gives it a stronger feeling. An exclamation point is also called an "exclamation mark".
People often use exclamation points when they want to show strong feelings in their writing.
