Comma's are the hardest punctuation mark to place in a sentence. A comma can be placed after instead at the beginning of a sentence if the sentence is a continuation of the subject in the one before it.
The use of a comma following the word "also" at the beginning of a sentence would depend on the context. If the word "also" introduced a new thought, for example, it would be appropriate. An example might be, "Also, the government wanted to ..." If, however, the word "also" merely contributed additional information that was incidental to the main thought, it would not necessarily be followed by a comma. An example might be, "Also in the cast [of a movie or play] were ..."
You can mark the end of a sentence with an exclamation mark (!), a full stop (.), a question mark (?), or even three dots to signify an unfinished sentence (...), never a comma! So the answer is no.
No No
A sentence closer is at the end of the sentence and normally, before the closer, there's a comma.-.-
When you combine two independent clauses, you need to separate them with a semicolon--not a comma. If you use a comma instead of a semicolon, the result is called a comma splice.
No, a comma is not necessary after "perhaps" when it is at the beginning of a sentence unless it is followed by a contrasting idea.
No, typically a comma is not needed after "otherwise" at the beginning of a sentence. It is not a coordinating conjunction that requires a comma to separate independent clauses.
When a sentence includes an extra phrase beginning with the word "that," a comma is typically not needed. The phrase acts as an essential part of the sentence's structure and does not require a comma to set it off.
A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are connected with only a comma. To identify a comma splice, look for two complete sentences joined together with a comma without a coordinating conjunction (and, but, or, etc.) or a semicolon. Fix a comma splice by adding a coordinating conjunction, replacing the comma with a semicolon, or using a period to make separate sentences.
Sometimes
No, a comma should not be placed after "after" at the beginning of a sentence unless it is being used to set off introductory or transitional words.
No, there should not always be a comma after the word "hopefully." It depends on the sentence structure. When "hopefully" is at the beginning of a sentence, it is often followed by a comma, but if it is used within a sentence, a comma is not necessary.
Yes, when also is used at the beginning of a sentence to add emphasis, a comma should be placed after it.
No, the comma does not always go after "nowadays" at the beginning of a sentence. Whether a comma is needed depends on the context and the rest of the sentence. If "nowadays" is being used to introduce a contrast or emphasize a point, a comma may be used. However, if "nowadays" is used as part of the subject or the main idea of the sentence, a comma may not be necessary.
Yes, when "sometimes" is used at the beginning of a sentence, it is often followed by a comma to separate it from the main clause.
Not at the beginning of a sentence. As you know is a clausal sentence adverbial, and as such it should generally be set off by punctuation. That would mean a comma after it at the beginning of a sentence, a comma in front of it at the end of a sentence and commas on both ends when it appears in the middle of a sentence: "He is, as you know, rather obstinate."
Typically, a comma is not used immediately after "though" in a sentence. However, if "though" is used as a conjunction at the beginning of a sentence to introduce a contrasting idea, a comma may be used after it.
