What else can I help you with?
Is there a comma after told?
Yes, there should be a comma after "told" in a sentence such as "He told me, that he would be late." This comma is used to separate the introductory clause from the main clause and improve clarity in the sentence.
Do you put the comma before or after the word otherwise?
Generally, the comma should be placed before the word "otherwise" when used to introduce an alternative or contrast. For example: "I need to leave now, otherwise I will be late."
Where do you put a comma in a coordinating conjunction?
You don't put a comma in a coordinating conjunction, the comma goes before a coordinating conjunction. Coordinating conjunctions are used to connect two or more independent clauses.Sally was late to work today, and her boss fired her.
Is this a fragment comma splice or a run on sentence Jay went sightseeing on his own and caught up with the group later?
Actually, it's none of the above. It's a perfectly normal compound sentence if you add correct punctuation: Jay went sightseeing on his own, and (he) caught up with the group later. Yes, you need a comma to separate the two clauses, but I don't see a comma splice or a fragment. The pronoun "he" is understood in the second part of the sentence. Usually, comma splices involve linking two independent sentences together with a comma, which is wrong-- you need to use a period. Here's a fragment: waiting for the train. Here's a comma splice: Jay was waiting for the train, it came early and he missed it. (You have two complete sentences there, and you can't splice them together with a comma.) And here's a run-on sentence: Jay was waiting for the bus but it came early and he missed it and he was late for school and he got in a lot of trouble because he had been late before and his teacher was really upset with him.
Where does the comma go when you use the word 'because'?
Remember, it is the sentence structure that determines punctuation, not the word. There is no word or phrase in English that requires a comma. The comma goes before the word "because" in the event that what follows "because" is a parenthetical phrase. Here is an example: --I guessed that I would use WikiAnswers to answer this question, because many of my questions have been answered on the site before. Here, the ending phrase refers to why "I guessed" rather than why "I would use WikiAnswers." For instance, you would use WikiAnswers because the answers are of high quality, not just because the answers are there. The previous sentence is also a good example. Commas are placed before coordinating conjunctions. Because is not a coordinating conjunction. Commas are also placed between dependent and independent clauses when the dependent clause precedes the independent clause. When a dependent clause precedes an independent clause, a comma is placed between the two. Commas also separate items in lists such as red, yellow, blue and green. Commas also follow introductory clauses. In the morning, I will go to the store. In the following two examples, the comma is not at all necessary, and it forces an unnatural pause. -- I use WikiAnswers a lot, because many of my questions get answered on the site. -- The bus was late, because there was an accident on the highway that caused a traffic jam. The comma is necessary after the clause or phrase introduced by 'because' if the word begins a sentence. For example: Because many of my questions get answered on the site, I use WikiAnswers a lot. Because of your help, I made it. =========================

Do you have to put coma after therefore?
Yes, a comma is typically placed after "therefore" when it is used to introduce a clause or to clarify the sentence structure. For example, in the sentence "She was late; therefore, we missed the beginning of the movie," the comma after "therefore" helps to separate it from the following clause. However, if "therefore" is used at the end of a sentence, a comma is not necessary.
