Asked on December 21, 2021 in Grammar.
In a sentence where four paragraphs should also have a semi-colon, no arguments are required, and no plurals are allowed, a fifth paragraph should always have a colon. Semicolons are often used for replacing conjunctions. These don’t necessarily equal them as they do when there is a conjunction. Is it appropriate to use a comma before and? A couple of ministers had
to resign, among them Interior Minister Fouchet. I can remember some nonsense the interview did look like.
I used a space before interiors. In my blog I try to put a comma before “inter”. Is this to be clear? Spoken, this sentence would be read with a natural pause and so a comma is needed.
