Question

Answer 1

While it depends Give me Example about what u are writing please.?

Answer 2

one space : . America / (period) (space) (word)

Answer 3

I was taught to use 2 spaces. But this was back when we were still using typwriters. Two spaces made it easier to see where a sentence ended. Now, with computers, the spacing has been improved, so only one space after a period is needed.

Answer 4

I still type with 2 spaces between sentences, but the computer automatically changes it for me.

Answer 5

Two spaces at the end of a sentence but not after abbreviations like Mr. Smith and misc. items.

Answer 6

Example: The dog was brown.(space)(space)The dog was Mr.(space)Smith's.

Answer 7

It doesnt matter but once you decide to use a certain number or spaces, continue to do so throughout the paper
