comma splice

Using a comma to connect two independent clauses; this is especially bad if they're unrelated. Instead use a semicolon, period, or a conjunction. You could also just change your wording if you really wanted to.

you're so smart, you're probably smarter because you wear glasses.

STOP WITH THE COMMA SPLICES

You're really smart. I bet you're glasses make you smarter.

semi-comma

a natural pause that occurs or that should be made after every word (except, of course, the last word) not followed by any punctuation mark while reading a text.

In the sentence 'We are human beings', a semi-comma occurs three times. Symbolically, it can be written as 'We*are*human*beings.', where '* (asterisk)' would represent 'semi-comma'.

implied comma

The implied comma is the part of a sentence that is not spoken, and the clause that follows is also not spoken; however, both the comma and the dependent clause are very much 'communicated.'

Often what's communicated after the implied comma carries much more weight than what was actually spoken.

Here's an example of the implied comma.

Joe Suburbs said, "You can't go to Zoe's house overnight. It's the school year. You're not on vacation."

His 17 year-old daughter, Briannah heard him say, "...you're not on vacation, loser."

For the rest of the evening, Joe Suburbs could not figure out why his daughter wouldn't speak to him and why she was slamming doors all over the house.

Two Comma Club

Two Comma Club – Having an income or net worth that is equal to or greater than $1,000,000. This income or net worth generates a number that requires two commas and therefore puts the person into exclusive status as a high income earner or wealthy individual.

John sold his company for $2,000,000 and joined the two comma club.
