I use too many commas (1 Viewer)

[maruberry]

I genuinely use an absurd amount of commas for english.
It's bcs in Estonian we have a shit ton.....

So I always find myself sprinkling them into english as well and then doing edits later to remove them lmao

Yes commas bow down to the almighty punctuation
but online I just use emojis like commas lol

They are these things, that are quite common in estonian, but like barely appear in english, for some god forsaken reason (I added commas as if I would if it was Estonian....)

[Wingfrost]

I’ve done that for years, I remember my old English teacher would try to help me fix it and understand when to use them properly but my brain just likes sprinkling them wherever.

Do you have an unedited post to share? I'm curious about the # of commas

 

[eclipsoul]
