Have a look for extra information. Remember that the Oxford comma is not always thought of as correct.

A comma is a punctuation mark that separates elements and ideas within a sentence. The comma is the most common mark of punctuation-and the most commonly misused.

In his Time magazine essay, In Praise of the Humble Comma", author and essayist Pico Iyer compared the punctuation mark to "a flashing yellow light that asks us only to slow down." Knowing when to insert that flashing light (the comma) and when is it better to let the sentence ride on without interruption is a conundrum that challenges even the most expert of writers. Learning a few simple rules can help you master when to use a comma and when to omit it.

"I sliced onionsNote how Angelou's sentence contains two independent clauses-each could stand on its own as a sentence-but the author, instead, decided to join them with the coordinating conjunction and, which was preceded with a comma. If the two independent clauses are short, however, you can usually omit the comma:

Jimmy rode his bike and Jill walked.

In most cases, do not use a comma before a conjunction that links two words or phrases:

Use commas to separate words and phrases in a series of three or more:

"Everyone Use a comma to separate adjectives that are coordinate (adjectives that are interchangeable before or after a noun):

"The books are You can tell whether adjectives are coordinate by inserting the conjunction and between them. If the sentence makes sense, the adjectives are coordinate and should be separated by commas. By contrast, cumulative adjectives -two or more adjectives that build on one another and together modify a noun-are generally not separated by commas:

To signal a pause, use a comma after an introductory word, phrase, or clause:

"Use a comma after a phrase or clause that precedes the subject of the sentence:

"Lacking brothers and sistersIf the introductory element doesn't require a pause, you can usually omit the comma

"He sat back in his chairBut don't use commas to set off words that directly affect the essential meaning of the sentence:

Use a comma between the day and year in a date, in numbers greater than 999 (except in street addresses and years), and between the city and state in a location:

The last time I was there was Jan. 8, 2008.

The house is located at 1255 Oak Street, Huntsville, Ala.

He had 1,244,555 marbles in his collection.

In the year 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.

When a phrase refers to a month, day, and year, set off the year with a comma, says "The Associated Press Stylebook, 2018":

The Oxford comma, also called the serial comma, precedes the conjunction before the final item in a list of three or more items. It is usually optional and is generally not used when only two parallel items are connected by a conjunction: faith and charity:

This song was composed by Moe, Larry, and Curly.

Though the AP Stylebook is a notable exception, most American style guides recommend using the serial comma for the sake of clarity and consistency. In contrast, most British style guides discourage use of the serial comma unless the items in the series would be confusing without it. As Joan I. Miller and Bruce J. Taylor say in " The Punctuation Handbook":

"Nothing is gained by omitting the final comma in a list, while clarity can be lost in some cases through misreading."

The Oxford comma is so called because it has traditionally been used by editors and printers at Oxford University Press. New Englanders may favor the term Harvard comma (the convention is also followed by Harvard University Press).

The comma can alter the meaning of a sentence, says Noah Lukeman in "A Dash of Style: The Art and Mastery of Punctuation." Consider:

The windows with the glass treatment are holding up well.

The windows, with the glass treatment, are holding up well.

In the latter sentence, the windows are holding up well because of the glass treatment, says Lukeman. In the former, the windows, which were treated with a glass treatment, are holding up well in general. "The entire meaning of the sentence changes, simply due to the comma placement," he notes.
