[function_im_awesome() {]

When you message three people, here is what is says:

Sent between %name%, %name% and %name%

There should be a comma after the second name:

Sent between %name%, %name%, and %name%

[Hugo Ashmore]

Not necessarily. In what version of English do you write? The tendency to add the comma before the word ‘and’ is, as far as I recall, an Americanism; in English English you wouldn’t have the last comma the ‘and’ makes it redundant.

[function_im_awesome() {]

In proper English grammar there is a comma.

`Joe, Bill, and Phil went to the store.`

[Hugo Ashmore]

No not necessarily – he said once again

Look it up or am I being rude and in fact you’re an English teacher in which case I’ll shut up

I don’t think it should have a second comma in the UK….

[function_im_awesome() {]

Look it up or am I being rude and in fact you’re an English teacher in which case I’ll shut up

If you lot want to argue spelling, or grammar, or punctuation, do it on your own blogs or another discussion forum. Not here.

My only comment will be that I do not view this as an error. This may be a British/American English thing, but I’m certainly not well-informed enough.

[function_im_awesome() {]

I’m not arguing. I’m just saying you have a grammatical error, but obviously you don’t want to fix it.

[Paul Wong-Gibbs]

Closing topic. This is not the place to argue about grammatical syntax in English language.

@DJPaul spoilsport :p

@vegasparty607 erm yes and that link is to an American educational resource! try looking up a general one and you will find that there are exceptions and differences to the use or not of a comma and ‘and’
