Great content ..the examples were easy enough to understand..

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

This is an excellent round-up of comma rules in English! One important point: the comma before "and" is optional, and it's often not used by professional writers. In academic writing (for school), we usually use this comma.

[@wojtekmoryl5422]

I think, this lesson was truly needed. Especially cause the rules from our native languages do not apply in English. We usually don't learn about commas in schools. Great video!

[@ajs11201]

If you're reading an English grammar book, the "introductory words" you describe at 9:23 are often called interjections, and if the emotion is very strong, you can substitute the exclamation point for the comma. "Hey, that's my car." becomes "Hey! That's my car!"

[@harshathprabaaharan7013]

Marina, I'm able to understand you. I'm gonna say that this very particular video have information which is new to me and its the same with vocabulary lessons as well. I adore the videos where I get new information and this one was uber great. Though I'll have to say that shorts aren't much helpful to me since I watched the full videos of them already. It would be stupendous if you upload shorts which have new vocabulary. The vlogs which you posted on this channel related to English were brilliant. But again, thanks for your efforts and all the amazing videos.

You teaching was a piece of cake and I could manage to grasp of your comma video. I really appreciate you for taking this much effort in addition to giving us useful video .whoever doesn't get it just watch the video again and again until you get it .

[@sajib333]

The use of commas in writing formal English is one of the few topics which is (almost) impossible to cover in days, let alone in minutes. Putting Commas accurately as we write something should be regarded as an art, as this can distinguish someone's writing from the rest. Your video apparently has covered an intermediate level of the lesson on using the Commas. The rules for them don't always adhere to normal rules of grammar, however. I am not an English teacher, nor am I an English native. But I have come across lots of English writings written by the natives, the gist of which tells a Comma could be differently used by different writers depending on how they are contextualizing their stories and importantly, emphasizing the words therein. The more you write, the more you become a pro at using them. There is no exception to that. Learning to use a Comma and a Proposition correctly in a sentence can (sort of) master someone in their English writing.

[@SofiaKim-r8s]

Lemme pause here too, to leave a comment. Its not just right, it is great. I love you Marina, you are best teacher ever I have met in my life. Thanks a bunch ❤❤❤. But I have got a question, did I use the commas in the right places?

[@tanishqkumar4016]

I don't use ; sign often, because, I don't know how and when to use it. Can you explain this additionally in your next video?

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Think of it like a period. We use a semi-colon to separate two clauses. Here's an example: I love my new job; however, I'm worried about my new boss. You can use a period there instead of the ;

[@ajs11201]

There are two primary uses for this symbol. The first was perfectly explained by @Learn Academic English. The second use is when you have a list of items that would normally be separated by commas, but one or more of the list's items has its own comma. In that case, the items are separated by semicolons. For example: my favorite cities are Boston, Massachusetts; Buffalo, New York; and Portland, Oregon.
