**Title:** Mastering the Comma (,) in Portuguese
**Summary:**
Professor Alice teaches the most common cases for using commas (,) in Portuguese, debunking the myth that commas are only for pauses. Key takeaways:
1. **Separating vocatives**: Isolate names/terms used to address someone (e.g., "Mom, I'm home")
2. **Apostos** (explanations): Use commas to set off explanatory phrases (e.g., "Luís de Camões, important Portuguese poet")
3. **Enumerations**: Separate listed items with commas (e.g., "soap, towels, clothes")
4. **Repetitions**: Use commas to set off repeated words/phrases (e.g., "very, very, very")
5. **Displaced sentence elements**: Comma usage for elements out of their usual sentence order (e.g., "The cake, you brought")
6. **Place names, dates, and addresses**: Separate these with commas (e.g., "São Paulo, June 30, 2021")
7. **Conjunctions** (but, however, etc.): Use commas before these when connecting independent clauses
8. **Explanatory expressions, corrections, and continuations**: Isolate phrases like "in other words" or "for example"
9. **Yes/No responses and initials**: Follow with a comma (e.g., "Yes, I'm coming")
