Is the comma before or after but?

Punctuation is dictated by the meaning of your sentence, not by the presence of particular words. A comma indicates a brief pause. Say your sentence aloud, and where you find that you naturally pause briefly, you will probably find that a comma is appropriate. Other people may punctuate the same sentence differently. That is not necessarily wrong. A lot depends on the context: whether it is formal, informal, written, spoken, and so on. Here are some examples: 'There was nobody in the house but my mother.' (No comma) 'I like cheese, but my sister can't stand it.' (Comma before 'but') 'I would prefer you to stay at home but, if you do go out, please wear a warm coat.' (Comma after 'but') 'I would prefer you to stay at home, but if you do go out, please wear a warm coat.' (Comma before 'but') (The last two examples convey slightly different shades of meaning.) It's perfectly possible to have a comma both before and after the word 'but' if you think the sense requires it, but you should be wary of having too many commas in one sentence.


Does a comma go after well?

Yes, a comma is often placed after "well" when it is used as an introductory word or interjection at the beginning of a sentence. For example, "Well, I think we should leave now." However, if "well" is used in the middle of a sentence, a comma may not be necessary. The placement of the comma depends on the sentence structure and intended pause.

Does a comma go before or after parentheses?

A comma typically goes before parentheses if the sentence structure requires it. For example, in the sentence "She decided to go to the park (which was quite crowded), despite the weather," the comma is placed before the parentheses. However, if the parentheses are at the end of a sentence and the sentence does not require a comma, then no comma is needed.
