Commas (a cruel enimy? 🙈)

Some grammar rules (and embarrassing mistakes!) transcend the uniqueness of different regions and style guides. This new International Grammar section by OnlineBookClub.org ultimately identifies those rules thus providing a simple, flexible rule-set, respecting the differences between regions and style guides. You can feel free to ask general questions about spelling and grammar. You can also provide example sentences for other members to proofread and inform you of any grammar mistakes.

Icon Commas (a cruel enimy? 🙈)

Post by Sara Nóbrega Bartolomeu »

Hi all,

I was just wondering if it is clear to all that a comma is missing here.

This is my original sentence:
"Celia joins her father on the stone laying ceremony where she meets Adrian Drewe, Sir Julius' eldest son, with whom she falls in love."

Would you add a comma after the word "ceremony"? If so, what's the logic or reason?

Cheers :)
