Poor punctuation brings shame to well-written literature. Therefore, no accomplished author can afford to ignore it. A comma, which is a member of the punctuation family, plays an essential role in your write-up. Let’s study its 5 primary uses.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. A comma is placed between words in a series:
    1. She likes to eat fruits, juice, ice cream, and brownies.<\/li><\/ol><\/li>
    2. A comma can also be used for salutation, such as opening and closing a letter.
      1. Dear Sir and Madam, (in the opening of the letter)<\/li>
      2. Love, Josh (at the end of the letter)<\/li><\/ol><\/li>
      3. A comma is also used to set off a dependent clause at the beginning of a sentence.
        1. After working hard on this assignment, we decided to take some time off for future projects.<\/li><\/ol><\/li>
        2. A comma is used before the conjunction in a compound sentence. In other words, we connect two sentences using ‘and.’ 
          1. She likes to eat fruits, and she likes to eat ice cream.<\/li><\/ol><\/li>
          2. A comma is used before and after quotation marks.
            1. “She likes to eat fruits,” She said.<\/li>
            2. She said, “She likes to eat fruits.”<\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
