Where does the comma go?

It is often said that an individual is lucky to have experienced one great teacher that truly inspires and awakens in them an undying thirst for knoweledge.


Thankyou for your help

 

1. after an introductory phrase or before and after nonessential phrases
2. before a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) to combine the two phrases of the compound sentence.
3. when listing things
4. to separate two adjectives that aren't related
5. before a quote and at the end of a quote (inside the quotation marks) if in mid-sentence
6. exceptions simply for clarification.

 

I wonder if UngratefulElephant knows what any of those are.

 

I don't know my grammar blows. I would guess after said or them, like I said bad grammar.

 

good point haha
examples in bold.

there are a few more rules but they're more complex. those are the main ones though.

also
7. when calling or talking directly to a character in dialogue.
for example: "'Don't do that, Ben!'"

 

I'm still learning what I once knew from school by going back to school and relearning what I missed out on.

 

I'm actually quite good with grammer; however, the sentence I posted above seemed to have needed a comma. I know the comma rules. I just wanted to make sure that my sentence was correct.

Thanks for the help

 

oic. if the sentence does need a comma which it doesn't seem like it needs to, it would be before the "and" i'd say

 

Thanks man
