Commas
While a period ends a sentence, a comma indicates a smaller break. Some writers think of a comma as a soft pause—a punctuation mark that separates words, clauses, or ideas within a sentence.
Examples:
1. Despite the stomachache he is having right now, Harvish still wants to eat the slice of cake that is in front of him.
2. "I would love to go, but I don't want to," Aaron said bluntly.
3. Since Priyanka saved up all her allowance money, she could now buy that favourite doll she had an eye on.
This can be found in your textbook, page 63.
