Punctuation Standards

Some grammar rules (and embarrassing mistakes!) transcend the uniqueness of different regions and style guides. This new International Grammar section by OnlineBookClub.org ultimately identifies those rules thus providing a simple, flexible rule-set, respecting the differences between regions and style guides. You can feel free to ask general questions about spelling and grammar. You can also provide example sentences for other members to proofread and inform you of any grammar mistakes.

I suggest if you have issues with its use, you must first understand these topics separately.

1 clause
2 independent clause
3 dependent clause
4 coordinating conjunctions

Then you can easily see their relation at the time.
