Oxford-Harvard Comma Headfuq! by Freshhinded: 1:01am On Nov 29, 2019
There is a tradition punctuation test given to British schoolchildren in the now dim and distant past. They are asked to punctuate the following sentence:

Frank I walked and talked half an hour after his body was cut off.

The Oxford comma (also known as the "serial comma" or "Harvard comma" ) is the name given to the optional final comma in a series. In the phrase "ham, egg, and chips" it's the comma between "egg" and "and". Entirely optional - correct punctuation neither demands nor requires it. And like everything that is optional, it has its adherents and its detractors, and, of course, there is also the vast majority of English speakers who don't care one way or another.

This essay examines why the Oxford comma was invented, then refutes the arguments of those who religiously use it, and recommends that any writer who understands what he writes has no need to make its use mandatory.There is a tradition punctuation test given to British schoolchildren in the now dim and distant past.
