Resume English - PUNCTUATION

PUNCTUATION

Comma, Dash, Colon

Comma

• is used before a coordinating conjunction ( and, but, or etc) that links independent clauses.
• is used after an introductory adverb clause and, often, after an introductory phrase(unless the phrase is short).
• is used to separate items in a series.
• is used to set off non-restrictive elements and after other parenthetical elements. A non-restrictive modifier is a phrase or clause that is not a must (does not limit the meaning the statement that is modified). You should usually set off non-restrictive elements with comma. You should not set off restrictive elements with commas.
• is used to precede “and” is optional unless needed to prevent misreading. 

Superfluous Commas

1. Do not use a comma to separate the subject from its predicate.
2. Do not use a comma to separate a verb from its object, or its subject complement, or a preposition from its object.
3. Do not misuse a comma after a coordinating conjunctiond.
4. Do not use a comma to set off words and short phrases (especially introductory ones) that are not parenthetical or that are very slightly.
5. Do not use a comma to set off restrictive elements.
6. Do not use a comma before the first item or after the last item of a series

Dash
Placing parenthetical statement between dashes has the opposite effect; it emphasizes the material.

Colon

1. You use a colon only after an independent clause. 
2. You may not use a colon between a verb and its object or subject complement, or between a preposition and its object.
