Comma – two easy meanings

 A comma

Two of the comma’s uses are easy to remember:

1.  Commas must be used when listing things, otherwise there can be great confusion. For instance:

At the beach today we have parachuting horses and zorbing.

Commas are used to punctuate lists 

The above should read:

At the beach today we have parachuting, horses and zorbing.

Commas are used to signify quotes

 

 

 2.  Commas are used to set off quoted words.

“I think it is a great idea,” said Clark.
