[Preparing to be hit...] That's because you put them where they don't belong. apostrophes without an apostrophe, for the simple plural.
[Ouch! Being hit!]

Here, finally, is my file for the body of "The Comma." Thanks so much for your patience!

There was one footnote in my text which I put at the end of the rule, since it couldn't go at the end of the page, as there are no pages. If you think it should go somewhere else, just let me know and I'll fix it.

Thanks!
Miranda

My comeback was just going to be: I love commas too much to ever use them inappropriately.
David's was better.

Shurtagal, I've put the comma examples in your folder on Anita's server. Hope that's OK.

I'd like to do sections 7 and 14 if I may... mark of exclamation and elipses, is that ok?

Shurtagal · Post by **Shurtagal** » July 1st, 2007, 10:49 pm

We are separating this book so we have really two parts per chapter body and examples.

Which would you like?

Clarica · Post by **Clarica** » July 2nd, 2007, 1:00 am

I'd like to do body.
