Commas Colons and Semicolons

Commas are not categorized into specific "types" like you mentioned. However, some common comma uses include separating items in a list, joining independent clauses in a compound sentence, setting off introductory phrases, and separating adjectives.

It used to be considered correct to put a comma after the saltation as:

Dear Sir,

Nowadays the comma is often left out.

it depends upon the type of sentence you write so it depends,&before a degree we never put a ",".

It entirely depends on what your sentence is. Usually there will be no comma, for example:

'This is the happiest day of my life.'

'This was definitely not what I was expecting.'

'This meat is too tough for me to eat.'

In constructions like examples 1 and 2 above, there will be a comma if 'this' is separated from the verb that follows it, for example:

'This, the so-called happiest day of my life, is turning into a disaster.'

'This, which was supposed to be making my life easier, is causing me extra work.'

Remember that a written comma normally corresponds to a spoken pause. Say your sentence aloud and see if you would naturally pause after 'this'. For the constructions illustrated above, note that the commas come in pairs, because they act as parentheses.

It depends on what you're writing. Here are 2 examples, one with a comma before and one with a comma after.

Anyway, I didn't want to go.

She can't help you, anyway.

No. That is not how commas are determined to be used. Commas set off a list of things, or they separate certain clauses or phrases from the rest of the sentence.

Example ; "Although Ted had socks, briefs, and tees, he could not find his garters, although, his mother believed, he might have found them had he looked closer."

It is important because if you don't use a comma your sentence will just run on. Run on sentences aren't good grammar. So, if you don't use commas and other punctuation, you do not have good grammar.

It depends, like; However, that goes into that and this goes into that. or: pizza, however, is a popular food.

With reference to my research particularly, the article "Augusto Pinochet, Dictator Who Ruled by Terror in Chile, Dies at 91" by Jonathan Kandell, this is a period of time when General Pinochet seized his powerafter his armed forces overthrew the government of President Allende.

When a modifier is necessary for the sentence to make sense, it does not require any commas. For example, "I will take the blue book" does not need commas around "blue" because it specifies which book is being referred to.

Nonrestrictive clauses and phrases are set off by commas. These commas separate additional information that is not necessary for the sentence's meaning but provides extra details.

The sentence "There are, on the other hand, many reasons to push this project forward." is correct with the comma inserted after "are" and before "on the other hand" to set off the introductory phrase.

The footnote is inserted between the second and third word of the sentance. This is official chicago style, not MLA.

This is a conjunctive adverb, e.g.:

He said he would take care of it; however, I thought I would follow up with you anyway.

Yes. A comma is only necessary if the conjunction is joining two independent clauses--a clause with a subject and a verb. Because "you" is the subject for both "to complete" and "to work," the word "and" is joining the verbs, not the clauses.

The word "including" is typically followed by a comma when introducing examples or a list of items. For example: "I enjoy many outdoor activities, including hiking, biking, and swimming."

56000

7000

1000

8300

The number 78500 rounded to the nearest thousand is 79000.

As far as the English language goes, you can use any word any way that you want. Many successful writers defy tradition in their writing styles.

HOWEVER as a grammatical rule of thumb you would not want to do that, since therefore is a conjunction and should logically link two ideas together. if you are starting a new paragraph, you should avoid using therefore in order to transition into the new paragraph. if you are not transitioning ideas, then you should consider continuing the paragraph

A comma splice occurs when two sentences are strung together, as in:

I went to the store, I bought an apple.

Comma splices are corrected by adding punctuation at the end of the first sentence:

I went to the store. I bought an apple.

You could also use a semi-colon to correct a comma splice, depending on what the sentence is:

I went to the store up the street; I wanted an apple, but they didn't have any.
