You would put the comma before the therefore. for example:

I am a girl, therefore I wear make-up and have long hair. (Just an example not all girls wear make-up and have long hair.)

Do you use a comma before and after therefore?

I do not use a comma before and after that word, therefore you will not see it in any sentence I have written.


Do you put a comma after the word therefore?

Yes. Therefore is usually used at the start of a sentence, to indicate a concluding idea or thought. The comma following it is used as a pause, separating the connecting word from the idea or thought. Strangely enough, a comma is not used in my sentence above because " Therefore " is used as the subject of the verb is, rather than used as a connecting word to a previous idea or statement.


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. If the sentence structure does not require it, it may be permissable to use a comma to assist in clarity and avoid confusion. Otherwise, don't use a comma. Have I confused you yet? Using a comma does not depend on the word, it depends on the structure of the sentence.
