[Guide] How to use commas & fullstops CORRECTLY.

[turbo_titties]

First and foremost, this is a serious guide as it annoys me and surely other players of this community.


Commas

Commas are the ',' looking thing. It can be used for listing things, an act of continuing things etc. The comma represents the shortest pause in a sentence.

Example
Bananas, Apples, Pear and Peach.

Did you notice what I did there? Commas are NOT used before the word 'and'.
Example of what that means.
Bananas, Apples, Pear and Peach. As said above.

Example of what not to do.
Bananas, Apples, Pear, and Peach.

Here is a sentence on how to use a comma.
I like to eat Apples, Bananas and Pears. The Apples are so juicy and the bananas are so long and thick!

Not going to remove as it was my mistake but what this quote said is right.

(Even)In my language rule, you use comma before and when you mention more than two things.
Example: I'd like to order a coke, a burger, and some french fries.

You don't put comma before and when you're mentioning only two things.
Example: My favorite restaurants are McDonalds and Burger King.

Fullstops/periods.

Fullstops are the '.' looking thing. It is used once a sentence is completed. The full stop represents the longest pause.

Example
I love you bro.

Example of what not to do.
I love you bro .

Do you see how I did not put a space before putting down the fullstop? Yes, that's you use it correctly!

Here is a sentence on how to use fullstops.
Fullstops are lovely. They put a big smile on my face as a big as the moon.



There are a lot of other ways to use the two correctly but I'm too lazy to do them and/or I don't know what else.

Ellipsis

An ellipsis is a set of three periods ( ... ) indicating an omission. Each period should have a single space on either side.
Example; If only she had... Oh, it doesn’t matter now.

If words are left off at the end of a sentence, indicate the omission with ellipsis marks (preceded and followed by a space) and then indicate the end of the sentence with a period … .
Example; I'm wondering … .

You may also use the em-dash ( --- ) to indicate omission, but you must also end the sentence with a period.
Example; I'm wondering --- .

Do not use "..-" or "-.." as they are not grammatically correct.

These rules do apply to exclamation marks, question marks etc.

Will do if no one else does it. Thanks for the idea.

You're using to complicates English for a guide which is meant for people that don't use "," correctly. What's up with all the capital letters?

[Muhammad Walid]

Thanks for this!

The title? Capitalizing letters is a way to emphasize your 'statement' more.

Many teachers say that we have to put comma before and

Eg : Bitches, assholes, and twats.

^This.

(Even)In my language rule, you use comma before and when you mention more than two things.
Example: I'd like to order a coke, a burger, and some french fries.

You don't put comma before and when you're mentioning only two things.
Example: My favorite restaurants are McDonalds and Burger King.

Yes, you're right. Adding the ',' before the and in a type of sentence is alright to do but the second example you gave is not.

Though, my teacher said it wasn't needed unless I mis-heard what she said. My bad.

great tutorial bro, someone call Nao here ! He really needs this !!

[Krishpy]

Next; A E I O U = An

Noo... That's not how it works. You use 'An' when the next word is started by a vocal voice, not vocal letter.

This is actually correct. Oxford English if I'm not mistaken.
