If a comma is needed, it normally comes after parenthesis.
Punctuation typically comes after a parenthesis if the entire sentence is enclosed within the parentheses. However, if the parenthesis is part of a larger sentence, the punctuation should be placed outside the closing parenthesis. For example: "He went to the store (which was closed)." Here, the period comes after the parentheses.
Use a period inside of the closing parenthesis to indicate that the sentence within the parentheses is ending. Use a period outside of the closing parenthesis to indicate that the sentence in which the parenthetical occurs is ending. Example: This was published in 1968 (Mary Jenkins looked it up.). or This was published in 1968. (Mary Jenkins looked it up.)
Quotation marks should come before and after a symbol.
Parentheses go before an exclamation point when the exclamation point is part of the entire sentence, including the content within the parentheses. For example: "I can't believe it (you're coming!)!" However, if the exclamation point is only relevant to the statement outside the parentheses, it should come after. For example: "That's amazing! (I didn't expect that)."
Only when it is the last word in a clause. Otherwise no. For example: I have worked hard and yet my homework is still unfinished.
A period should come before the footnote at the end of a sentence, while a comma should not.
It is usually appropriate to place a comma before "but." One should not use a comma after "but."
A comma should typically come before the word "but" when it is used to connect two independent clauses. If "but" is used to join two elements within a single clause, then a comma is usually not necessary.
You should put a comma before a person name if you're talking directly to them. ex- Please come here,Lily.
Sometimes, but not always. There is no one single rule that applies to "but." ----
No
Not necessarily. The comma indicates a pause or "change of direction" in the thought. The comma goes before yet when it means "although," and starts a new clause. For example: "I haven't yet seen her" and "I knew her, yet I did not recognize her."
It depends on what you're writing. Here are 2 examples, one with a comma before and one with a comma after. Anyway, I didn't want to go. She can't help you, anyway.
Yes
The comma would come after it.
There is no set rule on the number of words that should come before a comma in an introductory phrase. The key is to ensure clarity and flow in the sentence. Generally, introductory phrases are concise and provide context to the main clause that follows.
No, a comma before "as appropriate" is not necessary. It depends on the context of the sentence and whether it flows better with or without the comma.
