[left][/left][color=#006600][/color]Rules for Comma Usage
Ah, the comma. Of all the punctuation marks in English, this one is perhaps the most abused and misused. And it’s no wonder. There are lots of rules about comma usage, and often the factors that determine whether you should use one are quite subtle. But fear not! Below, you’ll find guidance for the trickiest comma questions.
What Is a Comma?
While a period ends a sentence, a comma indicates a smaller break. Some Writers think of a comma as a soft pause—a punctuation mark that separates words, clauses, or ideas within a sentence.
Comma with Subjects and Verbs
With few exceptions, a comma should not separate a subject from its verb.
Incorrect: My friend Cleo, is a wonderful singer.
Writers are often tempted to insert a comma between a subject and verb this way because speakers sometimes pause at that point in a sentence. But in writing, the comma only makes the sentence seem stilted.
Correct: My friend Cleo is a wonderful singer.
Be especially careful with long or complex subjects:
Incorrect: The things that cause me joy, may also cause me pain.
The things that cause me joy may also cause me pain.
Incorrect: Navigating through snow, sleet, wind, and darkness, is a miserable way to travel.
Navigating through snow, sleet, wind, and darkness is a miserable way to travel.
Comma between Two Nouns in a Compound Subject or Object
Don’t separate two nouns that appear together as a compound subject or compound object.
Incorrect: Cleo, and her band will be playing at Dockside Diner next Friday.
Correct Cleo and her band will be playing at Dockside Diner next Friday.
Incorrect: Cleo will wear a sparkly red blazer, and high heels.
Correct Cleo will wear a sparkly red blazer and high heels.
When a subject or object is made up of two items and the second item is parenthetical, you can set off the second item with commas—one before it and one after it. But you don’t need a comma when you’re simply listing two items.
Comma between Two Verbs in a Compound Predicate
You get a compound predicate when the subject of a sentence is doing more than one thing. In a compound predicate that contains two verbs, don’t separate them with a comma.
Incorrect: Cleo will sing, and play the banjo.
Correct Cleo will sing and play the banjo.
This mistake is most common when the predicate is made up of long verb phrases.
Incorrect: I meant to buy tickets for Cleo’s show, but ran out of time.
Correct I meant to buy tickets for Cleo’s show but ran out of time.
Don’t use a comma in compound predicates unless there is a chance of misreading:
Example Cleo spotted the man who entered the diner, and waved.
In the sentence above, you need the comma to make clear that it was Cleo who waved, not the man.
Comma Splices
When you want to join two independent clauses, you need a conjunction or a semicolon. A comma alone isn’t strong enough to join them. This kind of mistake is called a comma splice.
Incorrecet: We were out of milk, I went to the store.
You can fix a comma splice by adding a conjunction or changing the comma to a semicolon.
Correct: We were out of milk, so I went to the store.
Correct We were out of milk; I went to the store.
Or, you can simply write the two independent clauses as separate sentences.
Correct: We were out of milk. I went to the store.
Comma after Introductory Phrase
A comma normally follows participial phrases that introduce a sentence:
Correct: Grabbing her umbrella, Kate raced out of the house. Confused by her sister’s sudden change in mood, Jill stayed quiet.
When an adverbial phrase begins a sentence, it’s often followed by a comma but it doesn’t have to be, especially if it’s short. As a rule of thumb, if the phrase is longer than about four words, use the comma. You can also use a comma with a shorter phrase when you want to emphasize it or add a pause for literary effect.
Correct: After the show, Cleo will be signing autographs. Behind the building there is enough space to park two limousines. Without knowing why, I crossed the room and looked out the window. In 1816 life was very different. Suddenly, an angry black cat sprang from the shadows.
But, if there is a chance of misreading the sentence, use the comma:
Incorrect: Before eating the family said grace.
Correct: Before eating, the family said grace.
Comma within a Comparison
Don’t use a comma before “than” when you’re making a comparison.
Incorrect: This box is lighter, than that box.
Correct: This box is lighter than that box.
Incorrect: Hardcover books are more expensive, than paperback books.
Correct: Hardcover books are more expensive than paperback books.
Commas with Interrupters or Parenthetical Elements
Interrupters are little thoughts that pop up in the middle of a sentence to show emotion, tone, or emphasis. A parenthetical element is a phrase that adds extra information to the sentence but could be removed without changing the meaning of the sentence. Both interrupters and parenthetical elements should be set off with commas.
Incorrect: The weather I was happy to see was beginning to clear.
Correct The weather, I was happy to see, was beginning to clear.
Incorrect: Geoff’s cooking skills if you can call them skills left something to be desired.
Correct Geoff’s cooking skills, if you can call them skills, left something to be desired.
Incorrect: It was sadly the last day of camp.
Correct It was, sadly, the last day of camp.
Incorrect: Mary unlike Anne is very organized.
Correct Mary, unlike Anne, is very organized.
Comma with a Question Tag
A question tag is a short phrase or even a single word that is added to the end of a statement to turn it into a question. Writers often use question tags to encourage readers to agree with them. A question tag should be preceded by a comma.
Correct: These willow trees are beautiful, aren’t they? You didn’t actually write a 600-page vampire romance novel, did you? I know, right?

Comma with Direct Address
When addressing another person by name, set off the name with commas.
Correct: Mom, I can’t find my shoes! Cleo, there’s someone on the phone for you. Hello, Chester.
Comma with an Appositive
An appositive is a word or phrase that refers to the same thing as another noun in the same sentence. Often, the appositive provides additional information about the noun or helps to distinguish it in some way. If you could remove the appositive without changing the meaning of the sentence, it is said to be nonessential and should be set off with commas. If the appositive is necessary, it’s said to be essential and it should not be set off with commas.
Nonessential appositives:
Correct: My mother, Angela, is a wonderful cook. The painter, one of the city’s most promising young artists, began showing his work in galleries before he was sixteen. Chocolate, my favourite treat, always makes me feel better after a bad day.
Essential appositives:
Correct Edgar Allan Poe’s poem The Raven is a classic. Alec Baldwin’s brother Stephen is the most underrated Baldwin. The detective Sherlock Holmes is one of literature’s greatest sleuths.
Commas in Dates
When writing a date in month-day-year format, set off the year with commas.
Correct: July 4, 1776, was an important day in American history. I was born on Sunday, May 12, 1968.
If you are using the day-month-year format, however, commas are unnecessary.
Correct Applications are due by 31 December 2016.
If you are referencing a day of the week and a date, use a comma:
Correct On Tuesday, April 13, at three o’clock, there will be a meeting for all staff. Please join us on Saturday, June 14, 2010, for the marriage of Annie and Michael.
When you are referencing only a month and year, you don’t need a comma.
Correct The region experienced record rainfall in March 1999.

Comma between Coordinate Adjectives
When multiple adjectives modify a noun to an equal degree, they are said to be coordinate and should be separated by commas. One way to tell whether the adjectives are coordinate is to try switching the order of them. If the sentence still sounds natural, the adjectives are coordinate.
Correct That man is a pompous, self-righteous, annoying idiot. That man is a self-righteous, annoying, pompous idiot. The sweet, scintillating aroma of cinnamon buns filled the kitchen. The scintillating, sweet aroma of cinnamon buns filled the kitchen.
If the adjectives are not coordinate, don’t separate them with a comma.
Incorrect The adorable, little boy was eating ice cream.
Correct The adorable little boy was eating ice cream.
Comma Before But
Use a comma before the word but if it is joining two independent clauses:
Incorrect Cleo is a good singer but she’s an even better dancer.
Correct Cleo is a good singer, but she’s an even better dancer.
If but is not joining two independent clauses, leave the comma out.
Incorrect My teacher is tough, but fair.
Correct My teacher is tough but fair.
Incorrect Life is, but a dream.
Correct Life is but a dream.
Comma Before And
When you have a list that contains only two items, don’t use a comma before the “and.”
Incorrect My dog Charlie is cute, and smart.
Correct My dog Charlie is cute and smart.
Incorect Cleo’s favourite activities are singing on stage, and relaxing in the sunshine.
Correct Cleo’s favourite activities are singing on stage and relaxing in the sunshine.
When correcting a comma splice, that is when joining two independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction, put the comma before and.
Commas with Lists
When you have a list that contains more than two elements, use commas to separate them.
Incorrect: Julie loves ice cream books and kittens.
Correct: Julie loves ice cream, books, and kittens.
Correct: Julie loves ice cream, books and kittens.
(The comma before the and in a list of three or more items is optional. See below under Serial Comma for more information.)
Your list might be made up of nouns, as in the example above, but it could also be made up of verbs, adjectives, or clauses. Imagine, for a moment, that you have just finished doing three chores. The chores were:
• Cleaning the house and garage
• Raking the lawn
• Taking out the garbage
If you were to list these three chores in a sentence, you would write:
Correct I cleaned the house and garage, raked the lawn, and took out the garbage.
Or
Correct I cleaned the house and garage, raked the lawn and took out the garbage.
Serial Comma (Oxford Comma)
As mentioned above, when you are listing three or more items, commas should separate each element of the list. However, the final comma—the one that comes before the and—is optional. This comma is called the serial comma or the Oxford comma.
EXAMPLE Mary needs bread, milk, and butter at the grocery store. (With serial comma)
Mary needs bread, milk and butter at the grocery store. (Without serial comma)
I still have to buy a gift, pack the suitcases, and arrange for someone to water the plants while we’re at the wedding. (With serial comma)
I still have to buy a gift, pack the suitcases and arrange for someone to water the plants while we’re at the wedding. (Without serial comma)
Whether or not you use the serial comma is a style choice. Many newspapers do not use it. Many trade books do use it. In your own writing, you can decide for yourself whether to use it or not—just be consistent.
Keep in mind, though, that occasionally the serial comma is necessary for clarity.
EXAMPLE: I dedicate this award to my parents, Jane Austen and Albert Einstein.
The sentence above will almost certainly cause readers to do a double-take. Without a serial comma, it looks like “Jane Austen and Albert Einstein” is an appositive, rather than two more elements in a list. To put it another way, the writer seems to be saying that her parents are Jane Austen and Albert Einstein. A serial comma eliminates the possibility of misreading, so even if you’re not using serial commas in your writing, make an exception for sentences like this:
EXAMPLE I dedicate this award to my parents, Jane Austen, and Albert Einstein.
Comma Separating a Verb and Its Object
Don’t separate a transitive verb from its direct object with a comma.
Incorrect I’m glad I trained, Charlie not to beg for scraps.
Correct I’m glad I trained Charlie not to beg for scraps.
Incorrect Mary said, she likes chocolate.
Correct Mary said she likes chocolate.
Comma with Non-restrictive Clause
A non-restrictive clause offers extra information about something you have mentioned in a sentence, but the information isn’t essential to identify the thing you’re talking about. Non-restrictive clauses are usually introduced by which or who and should be set off by commas.
Correct Posey’s Cafe, which Chester recommended, is a fantastic restaurant.
The clause “which Chester recommended” is non-restrictive because “Posey’s Cafe” is already specific. Identifying it as the restaurant recommended by Chester doesn’t narrow it down any further.
Correct My wife, whom I love dearly, is a brilliant physicist.
The clause “whom I love dearly” is non-restrictive because you could remove it and it would still be clear that you’re talking about the same person—“my wife” is already specific.
Comma with Restrictive Clauses
A restrictive clause adds necessary information about something you have mentioned in a sentence. Restrictive clauses are often introduced by that or who and should never be set off by commas.
Incorrect The cafe, that Chester recommended, is a fantastic restaurant.
Correct The cafe that Chester recommended is a fantastic restaurant.
The clause “that Chester recommended” is essential information in the sentence above. If you removed it, there would be no way to tell which restaurant you were talking about.
Comma between Correlative Conjunctions
Correlative conjunctions are conjunctions that come in pairs (such as either/or, neither/nor, and not only/but also) and connect words or phrases in a sentence to form a complete thought. Typically, commas are unnecessary with correlative conjunctions.
Incorrect Either the blue shirt, or the red sweater will look good with your jeans.
Correct: Either the blue shirt or the red sweater will look good with your jeans.
Incorrect: You can wear a pashmina not only for warmth, but also for fashion.
Correct: You can wear a pashmina not only for warmth but also for fashion.
Comma between Direct Quote and Attributive Tag
An attributive tag is a phrase like “he said” or “she claimed” that identifies the speaker of a quote or piece of dialogue. Attributive tags can come before, after, or even in the middle of a quote. Use commas to separate attributive tags from quotations.
Correct The professor remarked, “How attentive you have been today!” “Once you know the solution,” Tiffany said, “the whole problem seems very simple.” “You have ice cream on your nose,” my friend snickered. “When you leave the house,” my mother yelled, “don’t slam the door!”
If a quotation before an attributive tag ends in a question mark or exclamation point, however, there’s no need for a comma.
Incorrect “You have a spider on your nose!” my friend yelled.
Correct “You have a spider on your nose!” my friend yelled.
Incorrect “Where did that spider come from?” I asked.
Correct “Where did that spider come from?” I asked.
Comma inside Quotation Marks
In American English, commas always go before closing quotation marks.
Correct “Pass me that thesaurus,” said Matthew. “If you knew what was good for you, you’d sit down and finish that essay right now,” my roommate said. “We’re going down to the soup kitchen to help serve dinner,” her mother called.
In British English, however, the convention is the opposite. If you are writing for a British audience, put the comma after the closing quotation mark.
Comma before Parenthesis
Parentheses are used to give additional information to the reader—information that would disrupt the flow of the sentence if written as a non-restrictive clause. Commas may be placed after the closing parenthesis but not before either the opening or the closing parenthesis. If the sentence would not require any commas if the parenthetical statement were removed, the sentence should not have any commas when the parentheses are added.
Correct after opening the new cookie tin, Chester had a hard time replacing the lid. After opening the new cookie tin (and eating several of the cookies), Chester had a hard time replacing the lid.

Incorrect After opening the new cookie tin, (and eating several of the cookies), Chester had a hard time replacing the lid. After opening the new cookie tin (and eating several of the cookies,) Chester had a hard time replacing the lid.

Comma between an Article and Noun
Don’t use a comma between an article and a noun.
Incorrect: The company managers accidentally scheduled the, weekly meeting for Saturday. A, bouquet of flowers may be created using more than one type of flower. I’ll have an, apple.

Correct: The company managers accidentally scheduled the weekly meeting for Saturday. A bouquet of flowers may be created using more than one type of flower. I’ll have an apple.
When speaking, we often pause while we think of the next word we want to say. In writing, though, there’s usually no reason to add this pause. If you’re writing dialogue and you specifically want to convey a pause here while someone is thinking, use an ellipsis: I’ll have an apple.
Comma with As Well As
The phrase “as well as” usually doesn’t require commas unless it’s part of a non-restrictive clause.
Correct Please proofread for grammatical mistakes as well as spelling.
Correct Spelling mistakes, as well as grammatical errors, are distracting to readers.
Comma with Such As
The phrase “such as” requires commas if it introduces a non-restrictive clause.
Correct Coniferous trees, such as pine and spruce, do not drop their needles in the winter.
If “such as” introduces a restrictive clause, omit the commas.
Correct Trees such as pine and spruce do not drop their needles in the winter.
Comma Before Too
Using a comma before “too” is optional.
Correct I like bananas too. I too like bananas.
A comma simply adds emphasis.
Correct I like bananas, too. I, too, like bananas.

Former military governor of Katsina and Plateau States, General Lawrence Onoja has revealed his civil war memoirs.

Onoja, 70, who fought gallantly during the civil war, which lasted between 1967 and 1970, recalled his encounter with the Biafran soldiers.

The retired war hero, said his surviving the war was a miracle of God, noting that many of his friends could not make it.

Speaking with DAILY POST, Onoja, a native of Benue State, recalled how they would send cigarettes and beer across the water to some Biafran soldiers during the war.

He said, “Surviving the war was a miracle of God. A lot of Idoma officers, who were with me in Port Harcourt were killed. I remember when they brought the dead bodies of George Lawani (younger brother to former deputy governor of Benue State) Col Shambe, a Tiv man, Francis Oluma, a native of Adoka here in Benue. I was very young.

“One day, I just received a call from the late Benjamin Adekule (Black Scorpion) in front of his office. I could remember vividly that what was written on the steel helmet in front of his office was ‘enter my office at the pain of death.’

“Adkunle posted me to meet my kinsman, Ignatius Obeya who was the then Brigadier Commander at Itu, CrossRiver State.

“At that time, you couldn’t connect Port Harcourt from Calabar because there was no road, you had to go through Aba, which was already held by Biafra.

“So, we had to connect through Igwenga to Abak, then we connected Oron before finally crossing to Calabar.

“I reported to Brig Obeya, Rtd and I was part of the operation from crossing Calabar to Itu through a river called Ikoto Okpora. I was made a brigade major to Obeya to ensure that the three battalions in the brigade were effectually controlled and commanded to fight the war.

“We were facing a place called Arochukwu across the water at the time. The Biafra soldiers were on the other side while the Nigerian troops were on this side. It was very funny, because every morning, we would wake up and talked to ourselves across the water. The Biafra soldiers would tell us, Gowon and Ojukwu are enjoying themselves in Aburi and we are busy fighting ourselves here, please give us some food, we would then throw cigarettes and sometimes beer to them across the water. “But after at about an hour, we would start shooting at ourselves. I went through all this and came out alive, I think at 70, I would say I am a fulfilled man.”

olaskul:
Former Deputy Director of the Buhari Presidential Campaign Council, Engineer Mohammed Lawal has alleged that Senate President, Bukola Saraki was planning to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari.

He warned those who think that Buhari was going to succumb to any form of intimidation to perish such thought.

According to him, Saraki should have been thrown into jail for allegedly arming robbers, who were involved in the April bank robbery in Offa, Kwara State.

Speaking with Sun, Lawal said, “Their grievance is that they wanted to be accommodated, and their grievance is not against the President. For example, the Senate President, Bukola Saraki wanted to be given the entire APC structure in Kwara State, and be given the party ticket and to return as the Senate President.

“Saraki is still the Senate President, while Abdulfatah Ahmed is still the governor of Kwara State, there has never been election in the state. They said it that during elections, Saraki shares money to ensure that he and his people win. This is what has been going on in Kwara. As far as he is concerned, he will use money to put his people.

“Look at the revelation coming out from the Offa bank robbery incident, where over 30 people were killed. The suspects confessed to the whole world that during elections, Saraki armed and gave them money to ensure his victory and that of his people.

“Obasanjo succeeded in undoing Jonathan, but he can never succeed against Buhari, and he knows. We are students of power, and if not because we don’t want Nigerians to say that Buhari is not a democrat, it shouldn’t have been like this. We would have moved against these people. We know that Saraki was planning to impeach the president. The chairman of the party arranged for them to see the president, after they have seen him, he turned back to frustrate the president and to undermine the party, and had already made up his mind on what he was going to do. We will see how far they can go, we have our own plan, and we are in power.”

ChangetheChange:
The Nigerian Political space was yesterday engulfed with cross-carpeting of senators and members of House of Representatives from the All Progressives Congress to the People’s Democratic Party, (PDP) and African Democratic Congress, (ADC).

You would recall that the convoy of the Senate President Bukola Saraki was blocked at the Lake Chad Junction of his Abuja residence while trying to make his way to the National Assembly.

LeadersNG understands that the Deputy President of the senate, Chief Ike Ekweremadu residence at the Apo legislative quarters was also surrounded by officers and men of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission who had in a letter dated 24th of July 2018 with reference number CR.3000/EFCC/DOPS/VOL49/40 sent an invitation to the deputy senate president to appear before the commission over the allegations of Conspiracy, Abuse of Office and Money Laundering.

LeadersNG gathered that the late night invitation of the senate president, Dr. Bukola Saraki by the Nigerian Police over Offa Robbery and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s invitation of Ike Ekweremadu was aimed at impeaching the two principal officers of the senate as buses loaded with the All Progressives Congress senators loyal to the executive were already heading to the National assembly from the Transcorp Hilton Hotels.

The senators LeadersNG learned, were given N50million each with exception of Senator representing Kaduna Central, Senator Shehu Sani who got N100million to usurp the leadership of the senate.

Sources at the Nigerian senate told LeadersNG that senator Shehu Sani was the one who leaked the information of the planned defection of the legislators to President Muhammadu Buhari.

Shehu Sani had before now been at the loggerhead with the kaduna state governor, Mallam Nasir El-rufai.

A Nigerian senator who pleaded not to be named told LeadersNG that Senator Shehu Sani is a betrayal and a snitch.

“He attends our meetings as a member of r-APC but barely talk”.

“If he was not a betrayal and snitch, why didn’t he defect with the rest of the r-APC senators”?

“We met and agreed to sign the list of senators that were defecting, only for Senator Shehu Sani to decline, saying why the rush since they’ve all agreed to defect on Thursday.”

Senator Abdullahi Adamu was the one who shared the money that was given to the pro Executive senators by the presidency.

Many of the senators LeadersNG spoke with expressed disappointment with their colleague senator who they learned is even planning on reconciling with governor El-rufai. One of the senators said, President Buhari is working hard to reconcile both senator Shehu Sani and Malam Nasir El-rufai.

Meanwhile, Senator Shehu Sani in response to LeadersNG news flash, said “Dear Editor sir, this is not true, Thank you”.

Meanwhile, Senator Shehu Sani in response to LeadersNG news flash, said “Dear Editor sir, this is not true, Thank you”.
