I recall reading somewhere that the "correct" way to use two commas, is when the words between the two commas can be omitted from the sentence. I don't follow that rule, as you might have guessed. I personally use periods as a "resting point" in the middle of a sentence. Ie, if I were saying this sentence out loud to an audience, at which points would I pause?
- davegauer 8y agoThe problem with non-standard usage is that it is confusing. When I see a comma, I expect it to have a particular meaning. When it doesn't, I assume I misread. You're welcome to use commas however you like, but know that others will be re-reading your sentences and wishing they didn't have to.
