FAQ
Why do sentences starting with 'Yes' or 'No' require a comma?⌄
'Yes' and 'No' function as introductory words that precede the main sentence — like other introductory elements, they require a comma to signal the pause before the main clause begins.
Is this a rule students commonly overlook?⌄
Yes — students often write 'Yes I agree' or 'No that's wrong' without the comma, making this targeted practice especially useful for polishing their editing instincts.
How does this connect to the broader rule for introductory elements?⌄
This is an accessible, concrete entry point to the larger rule that introductory words, phrases, and clauses are followed by commas — a rule with wide application in formal writing.
