Think of a comma as a pause or a breath. Read all the sentences and when you see a comma take a mini breath/pause. If it doesn't sound right then that isn't your answer.

jabez177 (jabez177):

what ?

OpenStudy (mvpriest6):

What if I told you it wasnt c. and the first one just doesnt sound right

sammixboo (sammixboo):

@Mvpriest6 thanks for explaining about explaining the answer instead of giving it out! This will help the asker with future questions. Also giving out answers is against the CoC!

OpenStudy (mvpriest6):

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

Ok maybe it is b

sammixboo (sammixboo):

"Think of a comma as a pause or a breath. Read all the sentences and when you see a comma take a mini breath/pause. If it doesn't sound right then that isn't your answer." WHat I said is something that always helped me when I got confused with commas and punctuation

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Jordan read what I stated :) "Think of a comma as a pause or a breath. Read all the sentences and when you see a comma take a mini breath/pause. If it doesn't sound right then that isn't your answer."

OpenStudy (anonymous):
