An Oxford Comma . . . Question 3 options:

Answer 1

In English language punctuation, a serial comma or series comma (also called an Oxford comma or a Harvard comma) is a comma placed immediately before the coordinating conjunction (usually and or or) in a series of three or more terms.


The 'Oxford comma' is an optional comma before the word 'and' at the end of a list: We sell books, videos, and magazines. It's known as the Oxford comma because it was traditionally used by printers, readers, and editors at Oxford University Press.


These 3 sentences show why you should always use the Oxford comma. Follow Business Insider: An Oxford, or serial, comma is the last comma in a list; it goes before the word "and." However, depending on the list you are writing out, omitting it can lead to some confusion.

I hope this helps you!
