Commas Colons and Semicolons

the commas go between items in a series, between adjectives, and behind a dependent clause.

Commas do not go at the end of sentences. Periods go at the end of sentences. Generally when typing on a computer, you should have two spaces after the period at the end of a sentence.

It's "Thank God for good memories, family, friends, and traditions." These are serial commas, otherwise known as Oxford commas. (There is some debate about the comma that goes before "and" in a series, but most people now agree it should be there.) If "Thank God" is an interjection, it would require a comma after it, but it's not an interjection here.

yes it can

A comma before "while" is often used to separate two independent clauses, indicating a pause for clarity. For example, in the sentence "I read a book, while she watched TV," the comma clarifies the relationship between the two actions. However, if "while" introduces a dependent clause, a comma is usually not necessary, as in "I listened to music while I worked." Always consider the structure of the sentences to determine if a comma is needed.

Yes, there is typically a comma after "First of all" when it is used to introduce a list or a point in writing. For example: "First of all, we need to address the budget issues." The comma helps to separate the introductory phrase from the main clause.

It would be appropriate to use a comma between compound subjects or compound verbs.

Is NASCAR considered a leisure activity or a sport? Picture a warm clear day; beer is in the cooler; the smell of hotdogs; hamburgers and sausage simmering on the grill. In the background you hear engines revving and accelerating at high speeds. The smell of rubber burning and exhaust while it seems it is a complete waste of fossil fuels. Crowds flock to see the races or get together with friends at bars to watch the race on television and even have simple leisure time lounging in their homes viewing the television. When polling 10 people that enjoyed NASCAR. It was asked why they like to watch cars drive around in circles? The study showed 8 out of 10 replied "I like to see the wrecks." What do the drivers actually gain? Bragging rights that they can drive around in circles faster than anyone else? How much fossil fuel they can burn in 500 laps? How much pollution can be created? How possibly can NASCAR be considered either? The amount of money it takes to operate a race car verses the struggling economy. No single person should be spending that much money on a wasteful activity.

The semicolon separates the two clauses, just as the word "and" would, in the same sentence.

Be careful to never capitalize the first letter of the second clause, unless it is a name, title, etc.

No, commas are generally not used with or. For example, you might say I will eat an orange or an apple with my meal. You would not say I will eat an orange, or an apple with my meal. However, commas are intended to reflect the rhythm of speech, and if a person speaks hesitantly, you might need to use extra commas to reflect that.

Yes, a comma should be used before the word "approximately" at the end of a sentence when it is used to indicate an estimation or rough calculation. The comma helps to separate the word "approximately" from the rest of the sentence and improves clarity for the reader.

essentially it breaks up a sentence whilst linking each separated segment of the sentence with each other:)
