You are the

king of comma rules! 8/8 points!

Excellent! Your English teacher would be proud of you! You can really go and show off a little among your friends because you really know your comma rules! You seem to have a real talent for languages and have great knowledge of English grammar. Share your result with your friends so they can find out if they are as good with comma rules as you are!

Ah yes!! You just gotta have commas. Remember the group that was asked to punctuate this sentence....?

The men wrote: "A woman, without her man, is nothing."

The women wrote: "A woman: without her, man is nothing."

Commas can change the whole meaning of a sentence. I've aleays loved this example.

A comma is a very, very important punctuation mark.
