Where do you use commas

  1. to separate items in a list of three nouns (Tom, Judi, Bob, and Carl went bowling)

  2. separating two adjectives that describe the same noun (I enjoyed the warm, sunny day.)

  3. separating an independent and dependent clause (Typing quickly, I finished my paper on time.)

  4. setting a part non-essential (must be a dependent clause) from the rest of a sentence (comma sandwich)(also works with two open dashes and parentheses) (Jeff, a life long baseball fan, went to Yankee stadium)
