Preface

 

Punctuation is best which best serves to make writing subtle, supple, delicate, nuanced and efficient. Of course you can write using only periods and commas for punctuation. You can cook using only salt and pepper for seasoning. But why do it when there are so many seasonings pleasing to a mature palate?

George Will

 

This guide is more of a practical source. The first part of every section illustrates the uses of punctuation marks, whereas the second provides exercises for student practice. By giving sentences from both textbooks and prominent writers for examples and exercises, we hope to show the full range of possibilities for punctuation in contemporary writing. If you study the examples carefully, you will gain understanding of how to use each punctuation mark in your own writing. Besides learning how to use punctuation correctly, you will see how punctuation can give you the freedom to write new kinds of sentences and express ideas in more effective ways.


THE COMMA

 

Setting Off Independent Clauses

 

1. Use a comma before AND, BUT, OR, SO, NOR, YET, FOR when those words are used to connect two independent clauses.

 

The express to Helsinki is fast, and it is not very expensive.

The plane is faster, but the train is more relaxing.

Note: A comma is not used with a conjunction if the two independent clauses are very short.

Marc flew and I took the train.

Always use a comma to introduce contrasting information.

The flight stops in Bonn on weekdays, butnot on weekends.

Note: Normally in this case sentences may not be joined with only a comma. Use a conjunction and a comma.

Incorrect: The flight was crowded, the service was good.

Correct: The flight was crowded, but the service was good.

Com

Underline the coordinating conjunctions and insert a comma in the right place.

1. Children have never been very good at listening to their elders but they have never failed to imitate them. (James Baldwin)

2. I was now twelve years old and the thought of being a slave for life began to bear heavily on my heart. (Frederick Douglass)

3. The Closerie des Lilas was the nearest good cafe when we lived in the flat over the sawmill at 113 rue Notre-Dame-des-Champs and it was one of the best cafes in Paris. (Ernest Hemingway)

4. One might argue that Carpenter had mishandled the re-entry but to accuse him of panic made no sense in light of the telemetered data concerning his heart rate and his respiratory rate. (Tom Wolfe)

5. People put up with less rockiness in a marriage now and the opportunity to dissolve a bad marriage in a rather easy fashion tips plenty of marriages that are not nearly all that bad into court. (Edward Hoagland)

Com

Combine the following into sentences using and, but, or, so, and yet.

1. The city services are good + the taxes are high here.

2. The municipal zoo is free + it is near our home.

3. There is little crime in this city + we are not afraid to go out alone at night.

4. People here drive slowly + carefully.

5. City employees can work from seven to three +they can work from nine to five.

6. City employees have many days of vacation + their salaries are very good.
