;Commas: | |||
*If you have multiple adjectives in front of your noun, they usually need to be separated with a comma. (a long, blue nightgown) | |||
*A simple way to figure out if a comma is needed is to see if the word AND will fit between the adjectives. Not everything can be broken up with the word AND. In cases such as this, you do not use a comma. (a long hunting cloak) | |||
;Emdashes: | |||
*These are used when you want to add something that expands upon what you have already written, and are especially important after the sentence should have been closed. (The flavour of the secret ingredient - garlic - lingers in your mouth.) | |||
;Hyphens: | |||
*Some adjectives do not describe the noun. Instead, they describe other adjectives. When this happens, they should be hyphenated. (a red-hued cloak) | |||
*When there is more than one word like this, you need to include all of them in the hyphenation. (a red-and-orange-hued cloak) | |||
*When adjectives such as these come after the noun, the hyphen is not used. (a cloak with a red hue) | |||
*This hyphen still applies if the adjectives come after the noun only to precede another related noun. (a cloak of red-hued silk) | |||
;Semicolons: | |||
*Semicolons are used to join two complete sentences that are related to each other. | |||
*The sentences must both be complete and must both touch on the same immediate subject. The second complete sentence is not capitalised. (The ring has different types of gems; sapphire chips surround small emeralds.) | |||

*The possessive form of common nouns ending in 's' should retain the possessive 's', example: dress's. | *The possessive form of common nouns ending in 's' should retain the possessive 's', example: dress's. | ||
