> Ending a case that electrified punctuation pedants, grammar goons and comma connoisseurs, Oakhurst Dairy settled an overtime dispute with its drivers that hinged entirely on the lack of an Oxford comma in state law.
I see no Oxford comma there. Am I missing something?
- chrisseaton 9y agoHe dropped the comma from the sentence, so it isn't there. That's the point.
- ASalazarMX 9y agoAh, thanks. Now I understand.
- ghayes 9y agoI think OP meant dropped as in "did not include," as opposed to made a reference to. The author set up a sentence that could have, but did not, contain an oxford comma.
