Discover LudwigThe phrase "wrong period" is not grammatically correct or commonly used in written English.
It is unclear what you intend it to mean. A period is a punctuation mark, and cannot be "wrong." If you are trying to say something is incorrect, it would be more appropriate to say "error" or "mistake." For example: - My essay was full of errors. I kept using the wrong punctuation marks. - I made a mistake while typing and accidentally put a period where there should have been a comma. - There were several grammatical errors in the report, including a missing period at the end of a sentence.
