[b]Exclamation mark[/b] indicates emphasis on some important or emotionally charged information. According to one theory, the current form of this symbol has come from the Latin exclamation which meant joy (io - hooray). "I" began to be written below "o", and later the image became less sophisticated.

This mark is usually put at the end of a sentence. However, in the Russian language you may come across it in the middle of a sentence. It can be put in brackets (which means something like "attention!" or "I'll be damned"). Ih this case, the emotional emphasis applies only to some part of the sentence - a specific word or phrase.
