Also means
to punctuate
Usage Note
Puntuar covers two distinct domains: scoring in sports or grades (puntuar un gol = to score a goal, puntuar un examen = to grade an exam) and adding punctuation marks to a written text. Note the accent pattern in present tense: puntúo, puntúas, puntúa but puntuamos, puntuáis (no accent in nosotros/vosotros forms).
Examples
"El árbitro puntuó la actuación con un diez."
Natural Translation
The referee scored the performance a ten.
