Square brackets are used inside regular parentheses, in a sentence.
Use a period inside the bracket to indicate the sentence inside is ending. Use a period outside of the bracket to indicate that the entire sentence (before the bracketed sentence) has ended.
Punctuation goes after the bracket.
If the contents of the bracket is a phrase or is merely adding to the sentence, the fullstop/period comes after the closing bracket. However, if the contents of the bracket is a full sentence or even several sentences, then the fullstop/period is inside of the bracket.Example:A new assignment? I was so excited (not).A new assignment? I was so excited (That's not actually true.).A new assignment? I was so excited. (That was sarcasm. I was not actually excited.)
To remove the rivets that hold the ignition coil to the bracket: 1. Use a file or grinder to remove the head of the rivet on the bracket. 2, Use a suitable punch and drive the body of the rivet out of the bracket.
The difference is a bracket is more like adding in extra information , a dash however is more like a comma in a complex sentence/clause .
Inside if the sentence inside the brackets is a question.
Yes, you would.
