Please note that some of these names are common in Latin America, but they may vary across regions.

Special Characters

In Spanish, questions and exclamations are marked with opening and closing punctuation marks.

While some languages only need the closing question mark (?) or exclamation point (!), Spanish also requires an inverted question mark (¿) at the beginning of a question and an inverted exclamation point (¡) at the beginning of an exclamation. For example:

• For a question, you would write ¿Cómo estás? ("How are you?").

• For an exclamation, you would write ¡Gracias! ("Thank you!").

The opening punctuation marks are helpful to anticipate the tone and structure of the sentence from the start.
