Do you use a comma before a quote?

A comma is typically used before a quote when the quote is being integrated into the sentence as part of the text, for example: She said, "Hello." However, if the quote is a standalone sentence that follows directly after an introductory phrase or verb, a comma may not be necessary.

Certainly, I can add a comma after the word "said," as requested.


When do you use a comma and period after the person is speaking in the story?

You wouldn't use a comma and a period together."I am going to the store," Betty said. In that sentence I used a comma in the dialogue because I have a dialogue tag (Betty said). The period comes at the end of the sentence. I would have been incorrect to use a comma, period, and quotation marks.Betty said, "I am going to the store." Notice the comma is with the dialogue tag at the beginning of the sentence. The period ends the dialogue.Those are just a couple examples of the many ways to punctuate dialogue.

Do you use a comma after the word oh?

When you have a quote and the 'he said' comes after the quote do you use a period or a comma after the quote?

When the attribution (e.g., 'he said') follows the quote, you should use a comma inside the quotation marks before the attribution and follow it with a period after the attribution. For example: "I am going to the store," he said.

Can you put comma after the word 'then'?

You can put a comma before or after just about any word if the sentence structure requires it.

Using a comma does not depend on the word, it depends on the structure of the sentence.
