When NOT to Use a Comma

Proper comma usage plagues nearly every writer. The tiny notation packs a heavy punch, and a comma misplacement or omission can change the meaning of an entire sentence.

Take the classic example:
“I’m cooking, children.” vs “I’m cooking children.”

The missing comma transforms ‘Yum!’ to ‘Um.’ Because a missing comma can cause such an egregious misunderstanding, some writers tend to overcorrect and use commas more often than they need.

Write Label has created a chart, highlighting a few common comma errors.
