unpunctuated
Lacking commas, periods
Unpunctuated describes text written without punctuation marks—no periods, commas, or apostrophes: The unpunctuated manuscript was difficult to parse.
Stream-of-consciousness writing is sometimes deliberately unpunctuated.
The word also describes speech delivered without natural pauses: an unpunctuated rush of words.
