章 3: Commas. Part 2
(Commas) Commas are ALWAYS used to indicate a break in speaking. It is commonly used for talking about several different nouns in the same sentence. Only use the comma when there is more than 2 nouns. Use "and" to connect two nouns.
For example:
"I have pistols, snipers, machine guns, and shotguns. Which one do you want?"
I had to kill goblins, orcs, and demons to get home.
(Commas) Commas can also be used after short phrases that describe the situation. Which should then be followed by an action or event caused by that situation. Essentially the phrase is the cause, and the following sentence is the effect. Used generally with "so", "but" or a noun.
For example:
My sister was extremely mad, so I stayed quiet and avoided agitating her further.
After the heavy storm, the court was filled with huge puddles.
(Commas) They are used when talking about the date depending on which format is used.
In a month-day-year format, the comma comes after the day. However, the comma is not used when speaking about the date in a day-month-year format.
For example:
July 19, 2011, is my birthday.
The deadline is 11 November 2020.
(Commas) Commas are also used in order to interject thoughts or statements in a sentence.
For example:
The essay, filled with grammatical errors, was not going to get a good grade.
This girl, who I hated, turned out to be the fiancee arranged by my grandfather.
"Mom, where is my stuff?"
(Commas) Depending on which audience you have. American English has a comma at the end of every quote before the quotation mark. While the British English has the comma after the quotation mark. However, this only applies if and only if there is not an exclamation mark (!) or a question mark (?) at the end of the sentence already.
For example:
"Why are you still reading this?" the author asked.
"This is my life," stated the monster. (American)
"Aside from this, I have nothing else", said Joey. (British)
There are plenty of other specific usages for the comma, but the above mentioned points are generally where they are used the most. In summary, I would say the best way to learn comma usage is to focus on comma usage in lists and interjections as they are the most prevalent in English writing.
