What type of punctuation is necessary to set apart nonessential appositive phrases?


Asked by maham237 @ in English viewed by 297 People

Answered by maham237 @



The correct answer is a comma.

Appositive phrases refer to a noun or a noun phrase that renames the noun beside it. Using a comma separates nonessential appositive phrases to the rest of the sentence. For example: The insect, a cockroach, was found on his food.
