@Love_Ranaa

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Any thoughts?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Okay, well lets cross A out because we need commas at some point and A has no commas.

OpenStudy (inowalst):

When you're going to write a city and then the state, you have to add a comma in between the two of them. Such as: Los Angeles, California.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was thinking b mabye

OpenStudy (inowalst):

I'm not sure because I'm sure there's supposed to be a period after St and I'm sure there's not supposed to be a comma after St.

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Or maybe no period is needed after St.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm in home school and it says that there has to be a . in St. because it is an abbreviation I wasn't sure about the , though

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Yeah, exactly.

OpenStudy (inowalst):

You only have A,B and C? Not D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have my grammar book right here and it doesn't say anything about the ,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no D

OpenStudy (inowalst):

About the comma in between the city name and state? Or after St.?

OpenStudy (love_ranaa):

Well...when writing addresses, you should always put a period after the St, especially if it comes in front on of a city :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx u

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Yes. @Love_Ranaa That's what I was thinking..

OpenStudy (inowalst):

You're welcome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about comma then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in b

OpenStudy (inowalst):

That's what I'm wondering..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so C is wrong? and A wrong

OpenStudy (love_ranaa):

Well, he already told you it's not A and I told you that you should have a comma after St., so what do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx u all

OpenStudy (love_ranaa):

Right.
