Explanation:
The glossary serves as a dictionary of terms, names, or places specific to a certain subject to enable the readers to make references of unfamiliar terms and newly introduced ones throughout their reading of the book. It is usually located at the back of a book in an alphabetical order.
Glossaries are very useful for helping students to identify and acquire the vocabulary of the discipline. Some students find it difficult to understand specialized vocabularies used in their readings or in class. Readings and class offer limited exposure when compared with what is written down in textbooks. Glossaries, therefore, offer more and better exposure of the terms as students can refer to them at their own pace.

Commas are always used when the word modified by the appositive is a proper noun.</em>
