Episode 7: the Cojuncs

The sentences below don’t have commas: some sentences need a comma or two to be correct, but others don’t. I suggest you rewrite the sentences before you diagram them. The more you practice writing sentences where you understand what every word is, the better you’ll be at writing your own sentences. Remember, diagramming helps you understand what the sentence is made of, but it’s the WRITING that really matters.
