I love sweets, especially ice cream and cake.
The summer was especially dry, and many farmers lost their crops.
The cake was made for the family and especially for the birthday girl!
Not necessarily. There is no word or phrase in English that requires a comma.
No, not always.
That is a general rule, but there are exceptions to virtually every rule. It would be better to avoid such commas.
You do not always need to use a comma for pauses. Make sure to not overuse commas in your writing.
I'm quite confused.My school teacher tell us to use one inverted comma ('......') when it is inside two inverted commas ("......") only.He also tells us to NOT use it when writing the word/phrase is,here are two examples: Correct:The word is"happy". Wrong :The word is'happy'. But my tuition teacher tells us to use single inverted commas('.....') for word/phrase.Here are two examples: Correct:The phrase is'happy'. Wrong:The phrase is"happy". So I've no idea which teacher is correct =(
You should have put the word 'or' in inverted commas, followed by a comma, or you might be misunderstood due to mistakes in punctuation!
Errm... Inverted commas?
no

You can use as many commas as needed in a sentence to maintain clarity and coherence, but it is generally recommended to keep the sentence concise and avoid excessive use of commas.
Use commas to set off nonrestrictive elements. Do not use commas to set off restrictive elements. A restrictive element defines or limits the meaning of the word it modifies and is therefore essential to the meaning of the sentence.
The literary device for the continued use of the word "and" instead of using commas is called polysyndeton. This technique involves repeating conjunctions (such as "and") in quick succession within a sentence for emphasis or stylistic effect. It can create a sense of urgency, rhythm, or a feeling of abundance in the text.
