    What is the difference between an after-thought n a subordinate clause when although can be used as both? I get this information . Condition+ result , not so an opener. Or closing . Many introductory clauses possibly .I didn't know slowly but surely was a filler.

      Jessica Sentman Hi Jessica! I would suggest googling "punctuation quizzes" and/or "grammar quizzes." There are quite a few free online resources. For more theory, I would suggest OWL at Purdue University; they have a lot of good info on their site.

    What I've learned about my teacher so far:
    He's a metal head.
    He believes in aliens.
    He smokes wee - I mean, "catnip".
    He likes to LARP and RP.

    When dealing with quotations, I have seen the colon and comma used. How do I differentiate between the two?

    • @punctuationnation6078
      @punctuationnation6078  7 лет назад +1

      The same general rules apply for both pieces of punctuation. For a colon, you need independent clauses on either side. For a comma, one side, likely the introductory side (beginning) will offer an introductory fragment before the quotation. Colon - "Janet offered some great advice to her fitness class: "Pretend you're an angry bear when you're on the treadmill." Comma - Janet offered great advice to her fitness class when she said, "Pretend you're an angry bear when you're on the treadmill."

    English is an awesome subject, and my instructor is greate.................how can this be two independent clause, both of them have no verb????

    • @jleebass8323
      @jleebass8323 5 лет назад +1

      The word "is" is a verb as a state of being, so these are examples of independent clauses.

    • @alexthai2456
      @alexthai2456 5 лет назад

      Jlee Bass ok, so linking verb count as a verb in independent clause sentence too??? I just knew

      @@alexthai2456 Yes. The instructor goes over what verbs, adverbs, etc., are in the first video. If you have not watched it yet, I recommend it, and it should be in the instructor's playlist.

    In your skydiving clause, I would have used commas to surround the word although, am I wrong?
