Simple superb! Adams your are really doing great work. I am a voracious, avid reader have lot of word at my command. I have superior vocabulary but due to lack of writing skills I can't express it in writing. I am very passionate about words. I am logophil(word lover). Now I want to be amazing writer. Thank you so much for this video. I am writing sentences in excel to the understanding so far I wrote 75 sentences.. now your video have lot of clarity.
bro, your videos are phenomenal; I seriously think that your explanations are the best. I really wish you all the best and I hope this new channel would prosper and grow more than the other one.
I'm not expecting an answer as this is 2 years old already, but your first example is confusing me. There's a big difference in 'A,B, and C' and 'A, B and C'. In the first one you're naming 3 groups, in the second B and C belong together, and can't be seperated. Or should you use or in that case?
sorry but i appreciate if you can explain to me about the sentence : most people ..., but unless an item is on sale,...' . Why this sentence is ' a adverb phrase ' ? i have question about .
What an amazing class! Thank you for all the videos including this one, which will be essential for me to improve my writing for IELTS. It would be awesome to also learn more about the dash use to emphasize something in a sentence - and if it is recommended to the IELTS writing. :)
Sir ... If There Are Multiple Commas And No Semicolon Is there As we see in NewsPaper .... Then How Can We Understand it...?? Plz Can u Explain This...??👍

Dear Adam and friends, if you can help with these: "I like apples, and pizza" correct. "I like apple and pizza". Correct. So, are both correct? I found the example with the comma in a ppt for beginner students :0
Correct? A. Tell me: What is your name? What do you do? Are you single? Etc. B. Tell me: what is your name?, where do you live? , are you single? , etc. C. Tell me: what is your name? Where do you live?Are you single? Etc. In these series of questions ending with a “etc.”, are commas needed between each question and the “etc.”, or only before “etc. is needed? Etc. or etc. ?
Thank you for the video, it was so helpful. Could you please check the below sentences?: 1. It is well-known that fast food contains mostly sugar and fat rather than vitamins and minerals, which our bodies require to operate normally. 2. Secondly, the lack of essential nutrients in fast food increases abnormal cell mutations, which can lead to cancer. 3. There were 5 of them, but by 2017, only 3 of them left operating. Thank you
Thank you a lot for such an advanced grammar lesson Mr.Adam. I always thought that my English is good, but after watching this video I’ve found out how much more I got to improve. I’ll keep it up, rewatch this video, and move to the next parts straight after mastering this one. Thank you again!
Hello Adam! Thanks for lessons! Would you not be so kind to explain me several things? I can't figure out how the structures be/was/were+ infinitive works.For example in a subjunctive mood(condition)
Son interesantes tus vídeos, pero intenta no tomar aire tan profundo porque se siente muy mal cuando escuchamos , das la impresión de estar ahogándote.
it's a coordinate conjunctions. They makes a relationship between sentences, and this why you have to use them to make clear this relationship of contrast .
What if "and" isn't used and a comma separates the addition information? Example: Porters hop off the excavator, clutching picks and shovels. Example: Luca swats at the kid's grasping fingers, knocking the boy down. Example: Annie comes back down, seeing a light on. I hope you can help. Thanks!
May I respectfully ask if the use of commas in the following sentences is correct? I know that we only use comma when the subordinating conjunction begins a sentence; whereas, no comma is applied when the SC is used in the middle of a sentence. But I was told by some professors that sometimes this rule is not applicable, especially for parenthetical elements. 1. The physical opening of schools will depend on the risk severity, pursuant to guidelines of the Department of Health. 2. The Secretary is authorizing the holding of Saturday classes, through the conduct of. . . 3. The learning intervention shall formally open in August, while the program duration… 4. Marissa went to the party, though she would see her former lovers. 5. The students decide to play computer games, when they can use their free time meaningfully. 6. I stay positive in the course of global health crises, despite the lack of support from the government. Thank you very much, Sir, for sharing your knowledge.
Commas are critical to clarification in comprehension. The classic example: "Count out one thousand two hundred and seventy. " (Count out 1,270- or count out 1,200---and then 70 separately.) The comma before "and" makes a significant difference. Technical writers especially are notorious for failing to use commas when clarifying meaning.
When it comes to commas I tend to overuse them, so I have what I like to call “Shatner syndrome” in my writing because of it. This video was extremely helpful, so hopefully it won’t be so bad now. 😅😂
Hello! Thank you so much for your videos. I have a question though. "In the past, schools encouraged boys to pursue engineering and they encouraged girls to pursue the arts" - I still can use a comma here, can't I? Or because of it being a compound I can't? Then why we used a comma in "...they must be native born, and they must speak all the country's official languages..."?
If the reader " trust me to make everything clear", then this means that, is up to me to choose the suitable place for the commas -except for serial ones-. At the end of the day, its my ideas, and I have to express them in a way that are not misunderstood . My worry is that, too many rules to follow, would be problomatic, and wouldn't be compatible with the way I want to organize my ideas.
I always watch your videos the day they are released, but I had to prepare for today exam, Phonetics :). Thanks, dear Mr. Adam for focusing on the Comma, they sometimes get really confusing.
Adam, I thank for your work. The comma I still need to internalise, but I'm getting there. An example sentence. On account of (their) trying to hypnotise me, I got two doctors dismissed from their posts.:One a psychologist the other a GP. Would love to study
Yes, you are good. In the example of The retreat costs include accommodations, all meals, and local transportation but not flights or taxes. No need comma before but because avoid comma when connect clause and phrase
A very useful tutorial for both seasoned writers and the rest of grades. Once again you nailed it, and you explained it in a very clear manner. Thank you very much. You are everything a teacher/tutor should be.

Hi, I have a question: Do you use a comma after the words "so" and "well" when you start with these on sentences? Also, do you place a comma after "obviously" when it's used this way: He attended the graduation yesterday, and them obviously attended the ball afterwards. Please respond. Thank you so much for your time and for the video.

Because I am looking for it and unfortunately, can't find it.
Best video till date
Commas are the most confusing
Waiting for the next part
Why is there a comma before “but” ? 8:47
it's a coordinate conjunctions. They makes a relationship between sentences, and this why you have to use them to make clear this relationship of contrast .
Jay Wat the clearest explanation is to use the comma between two IC's that include a S+ V
Does anybody has the link of the following parts of the video ? I can’t find them in the list of his videos. Thanks!

Why do you use "working "
Why do you use "working "

This guy is dope as hell.
Can we use a serial coma to solve the "compound problem", at the middle of the essay, even if initially we did not use it?
No comma after "make" ?
