Style:The Comma “ , ”

A comma in writing is like a pause inside a sentence when speaking. We use commas inside sentences. Commas separate parts of a sentence into logical elements. Commas have no meaning, but they help us to see the structure and therefore the meaning of the sentence.

Style:The Comma “ , ”

Use a comma between items in a series or list.

coffee, tea, sugar, milk, eggs, butter, salt

My favorite sports are football, rugby, swimming, boxing and golf.

Style:The Comma “ , ”

Use a comma for addresses, before the names of states or cities:

911 Avenue Mansion, Petchburi Road, Bangkok, Thailand

Los Angeles, California

Style:The Comma “ , ” When you join two clauses together with a

coordinating conjunction (such as and, but, so, and or), a comma is usually placed before the conjunction:

It was raining, so I took my umbrella. and He lives in Victoria, and he studies at UVic. but John is Canadian, but Sally is English. or I could cook some supper, or we could order a pizza. so She was sick, so she went to the doctor.

Style:The Comma “ , ” Use a comma after words such as for example,

and finally,…. Use a comma with dates……….

  Use a comma between the day and the year following the American style for dates:

                  ~August 18, 1950. When writing the day as well as the date also use a

comma after the day:                    ~We will hold elections for class president

on Monday, January 14, 2008.
