]]> Comment on Confusing commas by A R Sundararajan http://jstation.wordpress.com/2008/03/16/confusing-commas/#comment-13 A R Sundararajan Wed, 28 May 2008 05:03:35 +0000 http://jstation.wordpress.com/?p=38#comment-13 I think you can use a comma before 'and' when it precedes the last item in a sentence that lists things with a comma. This is a serial comma, which is also known as Oxford comma. And you must use a comma if "and" separates two independent clauses where both clauses can stand as two independent sentences. Of course, the example sentence provided here can also make perfect sense without any commas, as putting a comma before "I' makes the preceding part a dangling modifier and appears fragmented though the phrase is clearly connected to "I used very often" (the question is, what did you use very often?), and this comma separates subject from its object.
