You are wrong .... The Second is correct.. the third is wrong becuase flour and eggs was not punctuated making it an entity which is not the message of the writter... It should be ...flour, and eggs. As such, the second is correct

Home Grammar Punctuation How to use a comma (,)

How to use a comma (,)
A comma marks a slight break between different parts of a sentence. Used properly, commas make the meaning of sentences clear by grouping and separating words, phrases, and clauses. Many people are uncertain about the use of commas, though, and often sprinkle them throughout their writing without knowing the basic rules.

Here are the main cases when you need to use a comma:

in lists
in direct speech
to separate clauses
to mark off certain parts of a sentence
with 'however'
Using commas in lists
You need to put a comma between the different items in a list, as in the following sentences:

Saturday morning started with a hearty breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and French toast.

The school has a vegetable garden in which the children grow cabbages, onions, potatoes, and carrots.

The final comma in these lists (before the word ‘and’) is known as the ‘serial comma’. Not all writers or publishers use it, but it is used by Oxford Dictionaries – some people refer to it as ‘the Oxford comma’. Using it can make your meaning clearer. Take a look at this sentence:

My favourite sandwiches are chicken, bacon and ham and cheese.

It isn’t entirely clear from this sentence whether the writer is listing three or four of their favourite sandwich fillings: is ‘ham’ one of their favourites and ‘cheese’ another, or is it ‘ham and cheese’ that they like? Adding an Oxford comma makes the meaning clear:

My favourite sandwiches are chicken, bacon, and ham and cheese.

Using commas in direct speech
When a writer quotes a speaker’s words exactly as they were spoken, this is known as direct speech. If the piece of direct speech comes after the information about who is speaking, you need to use a comma to introduce the direct speech. The comma comes before the first quotation mark. Note that the final quotation mark follows the full stop at the end of the direct speech:

Steve replied, ‘No problem.’

You also need to use a comma at the end of a piece of direct speech, if the speech comes before the information about who is speaking. In this case, the comma goes inside the quotation mark:

‘I don’t agree,’ I replied.

‘Here we are,' they said.

There are two exceptions to this rule. If a piece of direct speech takes the form of a question or an exclamation, you should end it with a question mark or an exclamation mark, rather than a comma:

‘Stop him!’ she shouted.

‘Did you see that?’ he asked.

Direct speech is often broken up by the information about who is speaking. In these cases, you need a comma to end the first piece of speech (inside the quotation mark) and another comma before the second piece (before the quotation mark):

‘Yes,’ he said, ‘and I always keep my promises.’

‘Thinking back,’ she added, ‘I didn’t expect to win.’

Yes, and Russia also knows, from history, that it is right to be paranoid.

In 1808, Russia and France were buddies. 1812...France invaded russia.

In 1939, Stalin, against his usual paranoia, signed a peace treaty with Nazi Germany, despite Adolf stating in mein kampf that it was Gemrany's manifest destiny to conquer Russia and depopulate it. Two years later.....Germany invades Russia.

Now NATO is expanding into areas that were Russia's sphere of influenceputting it under risk. Yes, USA may not invade Russia...but Russia is still at risk from its western borders.

If you were a Russian leader, what would you do? With history on your side. (Stalin really regretted forgetting his history lessons in school).


And yes, I do not support Russia invading Ukraine. But NATO should remember that Russia cannot relax like that. Bitten five times..or more...


The main reason for Putin would be reveal if he wins this war... Putin should learn from Israel ... He can develop space defence to guide his territories against NATO... We all know that same thing Saddam Hussein planned to do, it's what Putin is planning... Let us be logical , even Nigeria also needs this NATO base in northern Nigeria like they have in Kenya against Alshaabab ... In the last 30years , how many countries or country has NATO force invaded ?... When is Putin stepping down has a president ?, Not untill we know the reason why Putin has been ruling for decades. , Wmany of u won't understand his real reason for invading and killing innocent people of Ukraine ...look at the serious protest in Russia against Putin's move ...is he doing it for the people of Russia ?, ...Putin is not God, the days of all these kind of oppression has gone ...except this is what God has ordain as WW3.

Both of you make sense, seriously.

At the end, that's why both of you should not take sides here. Russia has no business invading Ukraine, and Ukraine has no business allowing an enemy of Russia to set up shop in its country.


Russia does not have riiite to attack Ukraine for joining any body ... That's why it's a sovereign state , can make decision on its own ...look are Putin is killer innocent people , how many people has Putin fear(NATO) killed ??, where is the NATO now ?.... What about Israel that is border by almost all enemies .?, wht didn't Israel attack Lebanon for allowinv enemies to set a military base in Lebanon ??... This is pure oppression... No amount of sanction can bring back the lives Putin killed

.should Russia allow NATO to build a base in Ukraine?


So it's a reason why Russia should attack a sovereign state , Ukraine , is Ukraine under rulership of Russia ??, Invading another country ??... It is clear oppression, because of it were to be one of the super power country bordering Russian , this shit can't happen...it's a pure oppression and dictatorship ...now Ukraine can't make decision on its own ?...

when sometime ago, our own Oga bubu explained to the world, that Nigeria youths are lazy bunch, we were busy attacking him, but he was actually saying the truth, about some Nigeria youths, especially those youths that wants to enjoy the best of life, without laboring for it.
but those useless baba priests that mislead the youths about fantasy money, by snuffing life out of others, must also be apprehended and prosecuted along with these lazy youths, so as to curtail this madness of money rituals.
enough of this foolish madness.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Npower: Reason Why Your Npower Payroll Status Says "Failed" by Danwakae(m): 11:33am On Nov 17, 2021
ezenwaez:
Please if you are an N-Power Batch C Volunteer and your payroll status shows "failed" it simply means you have been paid but there was a redirect on your account, at this period this is an extremely appalling situation, if not rectified will affect your payment and you will not be paid throughout the entire duration of the N-Power program.

The reason why majority of Npower Batch C Volunteers' payroll tab is displaying paid is just because:

1) The wrong account number was entered during the pre registration process

2) The Npower BVN number did not match the profile name and account name on the N-Power NASIMS portal.

Please if you are having this issue do not send an email make a call through via the Npower NASIMS dedicated phone line 092203102, 018888340, please even if the call does not go through please keep calling even after making a call through ensure an adequate follow up is made.

In addition to the above, if any of the above numbers contacts you, please deem it fit to supply your relevant details, but do not disclose your PIN, even if the caller sounds authentic, only supply your banking details which includes your correct account number and correct account name and your bank name, I repeat do not disclose sensitive informations.

The current payment made is for September, October will follow through.

All this missionary schools are now fully funded by the Kwara State Government.The state government recruit staffs and also renovate structures as at when due.Hitherto,there has been a judgement in the high court and appeal court here in ilorin that has given the go ahead to muslim students to wear hijab in those schools.Hijab is an injuction by ALMIGHTY ALLAH to female or women as the case may be,it is an identity of muslim women.You may also wish to seek for the court rulings on hijab in the case of LAGOS and OYO respectively.Let us all leave peacefully amongs ourselves and shun all religious bigotry.
Bro, those missionary public schools r meant for those muslims/xtians who cant afford the private schools. For this case , a christian public school, why will a good muslim leave the countles numbas of public muslims schools in kwara for xtian public skul nd still want to wear hijab ?, ALL THESE U PPLE R DOING IS EXTREMISM. and not ISLAMIC. I'm a muslim.
