The Oxford Comma wars are over!

[@dphoenix683]

I am a lecturer at a university and I use many of your videos at the faculty. They have a great time watching them ☺

[@annamiller9153]

The sniff at the end was hilarious ;)

[@duasyed5658]

Thanku🙋🙏

[@jeffmastin]

This has changed my life. I have gone back and harvested redundant Oxford commas from old documents I have written, keeping them in a "bank" document, where I can reuse them as the need arises. Every comma recycled is good for the planet. I just used 2 here, no 3.

[@endycrymcrux6793]

Why do I feel like I've watched this video before?

[@AlineWelch]

Because it's really the same video, Endy! I thought this strange as welll =) I think that Aly needed to delete it and then repost it again for some reason.

[@alyalateef9909]

[@cuchulainn1967]

FOR ME, AS A FOREIGNER AND THEREFORE NOT A NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKER, THIS "PROBLEM" HAS ALWAYS BEEN A CHALLENGE : COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN WHEN/ HOW TO USE THE "LY"-ENDING AT THE END OF A WORD....FOR INSTANCE, " TAKING SOMEONE SERIOUS OR SERIOUSLY"..OR MAYBE,..." TO GET SOMEWHERE QUICK OR QUICKLY".?!?!?!..THANK YOU FOR (POSSIBLY) CONSIDERING MAKING THIS INTO A VIDEO!

[@fizzaarshad2439]

[@anenglishmanplusamerican7107]

Hello there, the English learners. As an Englishman, plus American, I would prefer both.

[@anenglishmanplusamerican7107]

As an Englishman, the Oxford comma debate is like the third “war” after 1812, but with less gunpowder and more pedantry. Americans are all for the Oxford comma, while we Brits often treat it like Marmite-either you love it or you avoid it like the plague. Personally, I couldn’t care less about this comma calamity; I just want people to speak proper English. Honestly, it’s not like the absence of an Oxford comma is going to start World War III-unless you’re writing about apes, JFK, and Stalin sharing a pancake breakfast. Let’s have a chuckle and move on, shall we?

[@varshavarsha600]

Hilarious 🤣 great method of teaching English

[@MissUstronianka]

In Polish language commas have to be there because if not it changes the meaning :) For example: if you follow polish politics (I know that you don't have to follow ) :P you know that there has been "good change" :) so it means that something changed and it's been good for everybody but if you use comma it means -> ok let's change something :) I forgot to add that I always forget about commas using English language :P

[@dphoenix683]

You are awesome! You should have been an actor for sure. Still not too late I assume :-)

[@drwho4545]

[@almosleh2]

thanks . l'm Saudi

[@moonboy8552]

The Oxford comma shall remain!

[@DeDraculace]

I've always been terribly fond of commas.

[@annipsy2185]

my friend says i have to use space after a comma! is that true? i think its annoying and time consuming🤔

[@michaelsetiawan2746]

Anni Psy yes, of course, if you don't it'll look stuffy,jam-packed,gridlocked, unpleasant,confusing,uncomfortable,and hard to read.

[@annipsy2185]

Michael Setiawan youre right i see it now:(

[@juliahartmann9689]

epic video

[@sfex9]

I think I like the oxford comma. Unfortunately in Italian, my first language, the rule is clear: you can join two items using either a comma or a conjunction, you can't use both. If the sentence is open to interpretation and context isn't enough, you should rephrase it entirely. So I would really like to like the oxford comma, I like pedantic and it's actually useful, but because of my imprinting I can't, it makes me cringe.

[@RubensEdeC]

And thus, the Anarcho-commanism was born

[@SamiSami-vb4kl]

So great video really... I'm learner of British English ... But I prefer to be with comma hhhh

[@abazulin]

In Russian we have that "Казни́ть нельзя́ поми́ловать" (literally "To put to death prohibited to have a mercy on") If you will put comma after first word this means "Put to death", if you will put comma after second word this means "Have mercy on" So I am commanist too =)

[@denNk911]

эмм.. нет, ты не "комманист"=) "комманисты" не говорят, что запятые нужны вообще в принципе (с этим-то никто не спорит), они говорят, что запятая нужна в конкретном случае. например, в предложении "я люблю пирожки, персики*,* и яблоки" вторая запятая и есть та самая оксфордская запятая. и ее сторонники считают, что без нее в предложении вроде как будет получаться, что персики и яблоки - это такие пирожки (что, конечно же, не так, и что понятно из контекста). так вот в русском языке как раз такая запятая там не ставится за ненадобностью. а если нужно указать, что последние слова в перечислении являются подклассом\уточнением первого слова, то можно поставить тире ("я люблю фрукты - персики и яблоки"), ну или двоеточие (не уверен, что правильнее, но тире выглядит как-то более органично). в общем, дабы завершить многовековое противостояние и избежать дальнейших жертв нужно срочно предложить англоязычным использовать тире =)

[@ANMOLSHARMA-is5yw]

This video was already posted by you, ain't it so?

[@scroxydrums]

yeah, it ai.

[@rozamunduszek4787]

we know they aren't in a gang... do we now?

[@sarezhshwan11]

The best actors

[@Darkjokes]

Well English has a lot to share with French, and as a French, I know it is advised to use Oxford commas. William would have used Oxford commas for sure :p

[@rozamunduszek4787]

what's with the sniffing?

[@devanshigupta7567]

USE OXFORD COMMA ALL THE TIME!

[@ВасилисКарапас]

English is all about exceptions so... Judging by this video, I'm guessing the use of oxford comma is one of the many differences between British and American English. Go figure! :D

[@saturn_ring4602]

I'll go for the Oxford commanists. So cruel to turn Washington and Lincoln into Rhino while Obama and Trump are still remained as human.

[@kreegalobunsen602]

I'm just a filthy commaner.

[@nelsonricardo3729]

Comma!

[@canaldeFerniNY]

Now, kiss

[@coolwill4073]

hhhhhhhhhhhhhh well done

[@MrPiquo]

Except, the phrase "red white and blue" is a single whole complete phrase accepted by the American people as an independent phrase denoting one item or one specific noun. If you weren't describing the flag of the USA you would actually use an oxford comma. For instance; The apple Cherry pie is red, white, and blue. As opposed to; The ship flew America's red white and blue. A good indicator is if the phrase "red white and blue" is a collective noun, one item. It's like if you were to say someone's full name ala "George Washington Carver" which is different from the three people "George, Washington, and Carver."
