OK ma'am
love u .. your teaching..❤
from Pakistan
Thank you so much for uploading this video ☺️☺️
Love you Mam thank you so much ❤️💗
Great content ..the examples were easy enough to understand..
This is an excellent round-up of comma rules in English! One important point: the comma before "and" is optional, and it's often not used by professional writers. In academic writing (for school), we usually use this comma.
Marina I scored 8 in IELTS Speaking💖 all because of you beautiful Marina!
I am so grateful to have a creator like you ❤🙌
Hey....can we talk?
Hi , is it easy ? Like can you suggest any prescribed books or something for any preparation ?
@@SandeepSingh-xk4jg thanks
@@ConfusedStudAll the IELTS Cambridge books are really good and keep watching Marina coz her content is going to be super helpful in the speaking module specifically.
congrats ❤️❤️
I think, this lesson was truly needed. Especially cause the rules from our native languages do not apply in English. We usually don't learn about commas in schools. Great video!
The first comma is incorrect
@@shaungordon9737 yes
You are a great teacher
I love the way of tour teaching.....i wanna learn a lot from you......lots of luv from india🌷🇮🇳

I kinda understand
be aware of typos .. jk comma I have also been guilty of fat-fingering a keyboard
Marina you are the best teacher ever seen , by the way lots of love from me and India 🇮🇳🇮🇳

Hey. Can we talk!
You explained it in an easy way, I love the way you highlight each information which is useful to us.
Thank you Marina 💜.
Hi Deeya...can we talk?
I've always struggled with the usage of commas aptly. Thanks a lot, Marina for doing this! Also, it'd be great if you can make more such videos on punctuations :)
Marina, everything you say is so easy understand and I am, as not a native speaker, getting more clues of the English language. You are superb at conveying the most needed information 💖 Thank you!
Please do not delete this channel ever.. Your teaching methods are impressive, understandable.
If you're reading an English grammar book, the "introductory words" you describe at 9:23 are often called interjections, and if the emotion is very strong, you can substitute the exclamation point for the comma. "Hey, that's my car." becomes "Hey! That's my car!"
I wanna tell you my experience with you Marina ❤️ hope you read it..
Its been 1 month I'm watching your viedos bec these are really motivational and I don't know but watching ur videos inspire me , giving me some kind of positive energy. Since 3- 4 days I'm not able to watch ur videos and today I'm feeling demotivated, so I came here. In our life we are surrounded by many people who demotivates us and this is same with me. Thank you for giving me hope to learn English because sometimes I also feel tht I won't be able to do this.
Hey. Can we talk?
@@TheEnglishator yup but for what?
Oh my goodness! All those years in school I could never understand commas in the English language. My first language is Spanish. This video is excellent. I'm learning so much now at my old age of 70, Lol! I'm a slow learner, but your teaching is fabulous. Can't wait to learn more English grammar from you. Thank you so much.
Atually, I feel like listening to all of your lessons in these videos. Well, you have been teaching so effectively and really fantastically. Love from VietNam . Have a good one, Marina!
You're my favorite teacher, love from India🇮🇳
Hey. Can we talk?
I was thinking about this topic from 1 month, literally...
And today u made it clear
Thank you Miss Marina...
You manage to explain complex thing simpler. I can understand the lesson perfectly! Thanks Marina
Yes, you are an excellent teacher and you've explained all perfectly, especially for your enthusiasm on linguistics. My mother tongue is Portuguese and the commas are used pretty much the same way as in English.
Thank you Marina i wanted to know the topic of commas from the beginning of the year i always thought why youtube teachers don't make videos about it so this is good for you and for us ❤
Marina, I'm able to understand you. I'm gonna say that this very particular video have information which is new to me and its the same with vocabulary lessons as well. I adore the videos where I get new information and this one was uber great. Though I'll have to say that shorts aren't much helpful to me since I watched the full videos of them already. It would be stupendous if you upload shorts which have new vocabulary. The vlogs which you posted on this channel related to English were brilliant. But again, thanks for your efforts and all the amazing videos.
The way you are putting across your content for us makes it really convenient for me to understand the technicalities of the language, along with the feel of it. Kudos!
Wow! Just amazing how much you've simplified the usage of commas for me. I must appreciate the effort you've put into it.
I never miss any of your videos. The day when I saw your video for the first tym I got addicted to this channel on the same day . Your videos are verrrry useful and informative . I hit like on your videos even before watching it because I know the video is going to be awesome . Thankyou so much for making such amazing and fun videos . Sending you lots of love ❤️
I love her expressions and smile 😊
Спасибо вам за простое и в то же время подробное объяснение, Марина! Все понятно!
Okay: It's very good, very interesting, and a bit complicated. But good.
I am learning English this way.
Should be complicated as always.
Completely agree!
HI. COMMAS are easy. IT MEANS A PAUSE IN A SENTENCE....nothing else.
SO YOU DONT NEED 15 MINUTES TO LEARN IT.
Commas don't have 13 rules...you just use them where you want to indicate a pause in a sentence. .....
Example......I'm happy, are you?.
The level of difficulty is okay. Not too difficult, not too easy. It is good 👍🏽🙂
Yeah its not too essy
But yeah its ok to listen
@@sakthivignesh5519 Hahaha 😄
Hi madam u have any duty I don't have money that any work 😭 please
The usage of comma in English language and Indonesian are the same, so it's not confusing at all, I love the way you teach it to us, Marina. ♡
Marina, I can not thank you enough. you are the great, most brilliant, and happy teacher that I have ever seen in my life.
I wish I could have you at the university where I study in. Thank you so much for explaining the uses of commas.
Interesting lesson marina I mistake a lot in this concept "commasssssssss", however now it's plain as day for me . Keep up the good work 👍 and thanks a lot marina 🙂
Wow! this is a very helpful lesson. Using comma is a bit confusing. Thank you so much.

The pace of explaining the words and the examples are easier and understandable and the way of explaining the heavy terms is way more awesome 💯

This was so helpful! I liked the way you explained everything. Thank you.
Yay! Please make these videos like this (such as how to use semi-colons, colons, etc.)
The topic is useful, but a little bit difficult BEFORE THIS VIDEO.
But the way you taught us in such amazing way, that now it seems like super easy.

You're so clear in what you are teaching. Firstly I love your voice.
The use of commas in writing formal English is one of the few topics which is (almost) impossible to cover in days, let alone in minutes. Putting Commas accurately as we write something should be regarded as an art, as this can distinguish someone's writing from the rest. Your video apparently has covered an intermediate level of the lesson on using the Commas. The rules for them don't always adhere to normal rules of grammar, however. I am not an English teacher, nor am I an English native. But I have come across lots of English writings written by the natives, the gist of which tells a Comma could be differently used by different writers depending on how they are contextualizing their stories and importantly, emphasizing the words therein. The more you write, the more you become a pro at using them. There is no exception to that. Learning to use a Comma and a Proposition correctly in a sentence can (sort of) master someone in their English writing.
Can we just appreciate Marina's handwriting? Lol So pretty!
lol so pretty🤓🤓🤓 fucking dork
ong u made me mad at 3 am while doing my assignemnt
Thank you so much ❤️ I'm always confused with ( , ) and ( ; ) It's maybe difficult, but you've made everything easy. I haven't watched all of your videos but I'm sure I'll finish soon. Your one video teaches me more than the whole moth in school. Thank you again. I'm just a teen-ager and willing to learn English like native speakers and you're helping a lot.❤️
I knew all the rules, but I never realized these were rules. Thank you for this video. Now I have a better insight about this.
Thanks Marina mama for uploading the new video and you are looking so beautiful 😘🥰It is very helpful to me
Love u marina mame.... U r the best teacher i had ever met..❤❤❤
Oh my god I love it! It was easy to follow and understand. Pls post more of these types of video.These are things which are like, basic, but most of us don't give much importance to it.
I needed a refresher regarding commas. Your video provided that for me. Thank you.
Lots of love from Bangladesh🇧🇩❤

The rules are actually quite similar to the rules we have in Czech! :)
Your teaching is just right....neither too difficult...nor too easy...its just Perfect😊👍
Mariana, it was very easy to understand the use of comma, and this video helped me to know about coordinating and cumulative adjective, which was new to me. Thanks for this. You're the best teacher.
Great!
Hi Marina...
Can u make a video on 'etc.'
Its synonyms / different ways! 😄
Thanks for helping. Your advices help a lot and I apparently needed this.

Love your videos!!! The level of difficulty was fine for me. Your explanation was so clear.
First I love your videos
5:52 Yes, it's too difficult 😭
But I liked your video, it's my habit 😀
You explained it in a way i didn't found it difficult, and i'm learning new ways, or new things about where to use comas. So thank you.
I highly needed the video on Commas, and you have came with one. Thank you!
It was a good video, few times I couldn't understand well, but through this video I got a better knowledge of using commas.
It would be great if you come up with more videos and more examples of using punctuation in writing.
This video is very much helpful.
Thanks Marina!
OMG I'm glad Marina! Heart from you ❤️ you made my day 💕

I reckon that it was such a delightful lesson, not too hard, but thank you ever so much for bringing about lessons like these. Greetings from Colombia.
I'm blessed to see you again!!! Your videos are extremely catchy, I just can't stop thinking about new things and great explanation!
❤️ Marina we believe in U ♥️♥️
I learned everything in this video in school, so I just watched it to brush up.
It might be hard enough to learn if you were'nt teaching.
But You made it so easy to learn it for the beginners,intermediates and also pros!
Thank you so much my role model. Please make more videos on other punctuations
How many like marina's teaching.😎

Me too🍀

I don't use ; sign often, because, I don't know how and when to use it. Can you explain this additionally in your next video?
Think of it like a period. We use a semi-colon to separate two clauses. Here's an example: I love my new job; however, I'm worried about my new boss. You can use a period there instead of the ;
There are two primary uses for this symbol. The first was perfectly explained by @Learn Academic English.
The second use is when you have a list of items that would normally be separated by commas, but one or more of the list's items has its own comma. In that case, the items are separated by semicolons. For example: my favorite cities are Boston, Massachusetts; Buffalo, New York; and Portland, Oregon.
@@ajs11201 Great point and example! :)
I always wanted to learn about english punctuation. Thank you!! It’s interesting, and accessible. But I need to practice because it’s hard at first
