Which statement explains when a comma should be used with a subordinating conjunction? (1 poin

Question

• The comma should follow the dependent clause if the clause begins with a subordinating conjunction.
• The comma should follow the subordinating conjunction if the independent clause begins the sentence.
• The comma should follow the subordinating conjunction if the dependent clause begins the sentence.
• The comma should follow the independent clause if the clause begins with a subordinating conjunction.

Answer 1

The correct statement is: The comma should follow the independent clause if the clause begins with a subordinating conjunction.

In general, when a dependent clause (introduced by a subordinating conjunction) comes before an independent clause, a comma is used after the dependent clause. However, when the independent clause comes first, no comma is needed.
