When to use commas in English
什么时候用逗号?
1. To separate items in a list 在列表中区分单独的项
We need coffee, tea, sugar and milk.
美式:"We need coffee, tea, sugar, and milk."
*British English writers do not normally put a comma before "and", although in American
English, a comma can be used.
注意:英式英语通常不会在"and”之前使用逗号,不过在美式英语中是可以的噢。
2. To separate clauses which are related in meaning区分意义上的从句
Do you know the answer, or should I ask Tony?
*Where the clauses are short, commas are not used:
注意:如果从句太短,就不必使用逗号了。
"I was tired so I went home."
3. After introductory phrases 在介绍性短语后
Unfortunately, I cannot send you the information.
4. Before and after a word or phrase that interrupts the main clause 在主句中的插入语前后
