Question

Where should the comma go - before or after the word "including"? 🤔

The comma normally goes before the word "including". It's like ushering in a list of items or examples that's going to follow. Here's a tip: think of "including" as the beginning of an interruption to the sentence. Interruptions usually require a pause, hence the comma. This isn't always the rule, but it's a pretty good guide to follow. Just remember not to comma-overload your sentences though, as that can confuse the reader. It's all about balance. 😊
