The Commas & The Stoppers est une chanson en Anglais
Cheerio kids! Welcome back to your groovy, beautiful live musical program, Ready, Set, Learn!, where I might say the kids learn from their favorite music stars. But first, back with our guest, a puppy doggy named Spot, who has a question:
Why do commas show up in the middle of a sentence?
The comma gives you a chance to pause, or take a breath. For example: Spot wants to sing, dance, and play the guitar.
Oh, I get it. After the words sing and dance, a comma is used to tell us to take a breath.
Right-o! Spot on, Spot! And now, here to dance, sing, and teach you about what they do in a sentence, won't you please help me welcome the talented, musical singing group, The Commas & The Stoppers, featuring Comma Kass. Now here they are, The Commas & The Stoppers!
We're the commas (They're the commas)
They're the Stoppers (We're the Stoppers)
I'm a comma, baby, so I always come
In the middle of your words to help your sentence run
We're the word stoppers
Period
Or, exclamation
Or, a question mark
At the end to say you're done
Or I'll run on and on and on and on
But must not run too far
I'm Comma Kass
I make the sentence last
But I can't run on forever
Period.
I can separate three or more items on a list
Like I ate pears, grapes, plums and apples
Get the gist?
Or, I indicate a slight pause in what you say
Like man, I wore my best skirt, the blue one today.
We're the commas (They're the commas)
They're the Stoppers (We're the Stoppers)
We're The Commas (We're The Commas)
And The Stoppers!"
