Elements including. Including. No comma needed

In Russian, the rules are sometimes so flexible that they are difficult to remember. For example, after the phrase “including” is a comma necessary or not? In short, there are different options. Somewhere it is needed, but somewhere it is not.

What is this phrase

According to dictionaries, the phrase “including” is a compound (consisting of several words) coordinating (connects homogeneous members of a sentence and parts of a compound sentence) union. Refers to connecting. That is, he brings some additional information into the sentence, attaches it to the already existing one.

By themselves, unions are not distinguished by commas, these are not introductory words. It's all about the information they bring with them. Usually this is some additional information to tell you more about something.
This information is called the connecting turnover, a member of the proposal. As soon as it was formed, the union became dependent and is now considered together with the entire turnover. If it is in the middle or at the end of a sentence, it is separated (in the middle) or separated (at the end) by commas. Dash is used less often.

Do I need a comma after "including": rule

In the "Academic Handbook", paragraph 84, we read: "... The adjoining members of the sentence ... are separated by commas." The following mistake is often made here: understanding this phrase as an independent connecting phrase, they put two commas on both sides. Thus, "including" is distinguished by commas as an adjunctive member of the sentence, being in fact a union.

The mistake is that the second comma after this union is put too early. It should be placed after the attached information. The Union, as it were, makes an announcement: now there will be information. This information follows. And they need a comma after them.

Examples of correct and incorrect spelling

When do you need a comma after "including", and when not?
Correct spelling example:
    There is a lot of boring information in this text, including about connecting turns.
An example of incorrect spelling:
    There is a lot of boring information in this text, including about connecting turns.
Italicized is a member of the sentence, which, with the help of this union, complements what was said earlier. It must not be broken by a comma. It should only be singled out, separated from the previous text. And here a comma is needed.

When to put a comma after a turn

Sometimes a comma is also placed after the turnover. This happens when the sentence does not end with it and the thought from its first part continues. Then, in a turnover that begins with the words “including”, a comma on both sides highlights it, and the whole turnover is enclosed in commas. Example:
    There is a lot of boring information in this text, including about connecting turns, and only an academician can understand this.
Here, if you throw out the turnover, commas are not needed. The conjunction "and" excludes them. But it happens that even if you throw out the turnover, commas are needed. This is required if the idea from the first or second part is explained. Example:
    There is a lot of boring information in this text, including about connecting turns, which only an academician can understand.
The idea from the first part of the sentence is explained.
    There is a lot of boring information in this text, including about connecting turns, which only an academician can understand.
The idea from the second part of the sentence is explained.
It is important to understand that these examples do not apply to the rule of writing only the union “including”. They are given in order to show the highlight of the turnover with this union. They will also stand out with another union. Example:
    There is a lot of boring information in this text, namely about connecting turns, which only an academician can understand.
Knowing the unions, it is easy to understand where to put commas.

When a comma is not used

There are times when they write "including" without commas. Example:
    Previously, we occupied room number one hundred, and now - number one hundred and thirty-seven. It's a pity that they moved, I liked the ease of memorization, among other things.

Everything is clear here. From the context it is clear that we are talking about numerals. The meaning of the phrase is different. And the rules are different. This is no longer a union, but a noun "number" in the prepositional case. Here's a more complicated example:
    Due to the unrepaired fleet of vehicles, the processing of fields has decreased. As you can see, fluctuations in the amount of the gross product occur, among other things, due to the liquidation of the car repair enterprise.
There is no comma before or after "including". Context is also important here. If you throw out the union, the meaning of what was said changes slightly. That is, the only reason for fluctuations in the amount of gross product is indicated - the liquidation of an auto repair enterprise. Because of the standing phrase, it is clear that this reason is not the only one. You can rephrase this so that the connecting turnover becomes visible:
    Fluctuations in the amount of the gross product are influenced by certain reasons, including the liquidation of a car repair enterprise.
The word “reasons” is supplemented with a turnover (highlighted in italics).
In layman's terms it might look like this:
    This happened, among other things, through your fault. This happened through your fault as well.
Classic variant:
    Many people are to blame for what happened, including you.
Here the word "many" is complemented by a turnover. It is implied, but not in the previous version. Here is an example of the movement of the language. This is how the majority began to speak, these constructions (with the missing explained word) are pronounced on the radio, they fly from the lips of politicians. Many sentences that were previously considered invalid constructions due to the lack of a generalizing word are now the norm.

When an offer is wrong

It happens that the sentence itself, containing this union, is drawn up incorrectly. The rules stipulate that the connecting structure must refer to a specific word. If it doesn't exist, there is nothing to add.
Example:
    At the meeting of graduates, we remembered, including the Petrov twins.
Here, a completely unnecessary union “including”, the comma in front of it speaks of an attached turnover. But that's just the words that need to be supplemented, no. Sounds illiterate. You can rephrase it like this:
    At the meeting of graduates, many classmates were remembered, including the Petrov twins.

Why do you need to know

Understanding where to put a comma is not only for schoolchildren, but also for adults. Imagine this situation: a graduate wrote a resume and sent it to a company that needs a specialist of his level. He was sure that he would be taken.

While the competitors sitting in line for an interview were worried, he calmly imagined himself in a new job. What was his surprise when the representative of the employer pointed to his resume as the reason for the refusal!
It turned out that, trying to present himself from the best side, the applicant wrote the following phrase:

    I happened to develop software products for large companies, including for "A" and "B" and I have a certificate of successful implementation of one of them.
There is a comma after the union "including", but it should come after the turnover (in italics), and not break it. Apparently, the young man was afraid to put a comma before the "and". In vain.

This is how a competent specialist in his field can suddenly become a loser.

Should this phrase be replaced?

It should be noted that such revolutions can be joined without unions. For example:
    There is a lot of boring information in this text, including about connecting revolutions. There is a lot of boring information about connecting revolutions in this text.
In the second case, the union will be thrown out, but the meaning of this has changed a little. Now it follows from the sentence that boring information contains connecting turns. In the first sentence, this is not the only reason, some other is implied.
Some tend to replace uncomfortable words, write in simple sentences to avoid mistakes. Thus, the language is impoverished, deprived of turns of speech. Words that accurately express a thought are leaving. Ultimately, this leads to the impoverishment of the vocabulary and the inability to explain or prove anything.

Having dealt with the unions, it will be easy to pass the literacy test, and the mistakes of colleagues will only cause a smile. The best way to improve literacy is to read fiction. It is rich in expressive means, in it you can find all the techniques necessary for writing texts.
The main thing is not to give up, and everything will work out!

    Russian-Belarusian dictionary

In Russian, the rules are sometimes so flexible that they are difficult to remember. For example, after the phrase “including” is a comma necessary or not? In short, there are different options. Somewhere it is needed, but somewhere it is not.

What is this phrase

According to dictionaries, the phrase “including” is a compound (consisting of several words) coordinating (connects homogeneous members of a sentence and parts of a compound sentence) union. Refers to connecting. That is, he brings some additional information into the sentence, attaches it to the already existing one.

By themselves, unions are not distinguished by commas, these are not introductory words. It's all about the information they bring with them. Usually this is some additional information to tell you more about something.

This information is called connecting turn, member of the proposal. As soon as it was formed, the union became dependent and is now considered together with the entire turnover. If it is in the middle or at the end of a sentence, it is separated (in the middle) or separated (at the end) by commas. Dash is used less often.

Do I need a comma after "including": rule

In the "Academic Handbook", paragraph 84, we read: "... The adjoining members of the sentence ... are separated by commas." The following mistake is often made here: understanding this phrase as an independent connecting phrase, they put two commas on both sides. Thus, "including" is distinguished by commas as an adjunctive member of the sentence, being in fact a union.

The mistake is that the second comma after this union is put too early. It should be placed after the attached information. The Union, as it were, makes an announcement: now there will be information. This information follows. And they need a comma after them.

Examples of correct and incorrect spelling

When do you need a comma after "including", and when not?

Correct spelling example:

  • , including.

An example of incorrect spelling:

  • including, about connecting revolutions.

Italicized is a member of the sentence, which, with the help of this union, complements what was said earlier. It must not be broken by a comma. It should only be singled out, separated from the previous text. And here a comma is needed.

When to put a comma after a turn

Sometimes a comma is also placed after the turnover. This happens when the sentence does not end with it and the thought from its first part continues. Then, in a turnover that begins with the words “including”, a comma on both sides highlights it, and the whole turnover is enclosed in commas. Example:

  • There is a lot of boring information in this text, includingabout connecting turns, and only an academician can understand this.

Here, if you throw out the turnover, commas are not needed. The conjunction "and" excludes them. But it happens that even if you throw out the turnover, commas are needed. This is required if the idea from the first or second part is explained. Example:

  • There is a lot of boring information in this text, includingabout connecting turns, which only an academician can understand.

The idea from the first part of the sentence is explained.

  • There is a lot of boring information in this text, includingabout connecting turns

The idea from the second part of the sentence is explained.

It is important to understand that these examples do not apply to the rule of writing only the union “including”. They are given in order to show the highlight of the turnover with this union. They will also stand out with another union. Example:

  • There is a lot of boring information in this text , namely about connecting revolutions which only an academician can understand.

Knowing the unions, it is easy to understand where to put commas.

When a comma is not used

There are times when they write "including" without commas. Example:

  • Previously, we occupied room number one hundred, and now - number one hundred and thirty-seven. It's a pity that they moved, I liked it including ease of remembering.

Everything is clear here. From the context it is clear that we are talking about numerals. The meaning of the phrase is different. And the rules are different. This is no longer a union, but a noun "number" in the prepositional case. Here's a more complicated example:

  • Due to the unrepaired fleet of vehicles, the processing of fields has decreased. As you can see, fluctuations in the amount of gross product occur including and due to the liquidation of the auto repair enterprise.

Neither before nor after including» The comma is not used. Context is also important here. If you throw out the union, the meaning of what was said changes slightly. That is, the only reason for fluctuations in the amount of gross product is indicated - the liquidation of an auto repair enterprise. Because of the standing phrase, it is clear that this reason is not the only one. You can rephrase this so that the connecting turnover becomes visible:

  • Fluctuations in the amount of the gross product are influenced by certain reasons, including liquidation of a car repair shop.

The word “reasons” is supplemented with a turnover (highlighted in italics).

In layman's terms it might look like this:

  • It is happened including and your fault.
  • It is happened and through your fault as well.

Classic variant:

  • Many people are to blame for what happened. including and you.

Here the word "many" is complemented by a turnover. It is implied, but not in the previous version. Here is an example of the movement of the language. This is how the majority began to speak, these constructions (with the missing explained word) are pronounced on the radio, they fly from the lips of politicians. Many sentences that were previously considered invalid constructions due to the lack of a generalizing word are now the norm.

When an offer is wrong

It happens that the sentence itself, containing this union, is drawn up incorrectly. The rules stipulate that the connecting structure must refer to a specific word. If it doesn't exist, there is nothing to add.

  • At the alumni reunion, we recalled including and the Petrov twins.

Here, a completely unnecessary union “including”, the comma in front of it speaks of an attached turnover. But that's just the words that need to be supplemented, no. Sounds illiterate. You can rephrase it like this:

  • At the meeting of graduates, they recalled many classmates, including and the Petrov twins.

Why do you need to know

Understanding where to put a comma is not only for schoolchildren, but also for adults. Imagine this situation: a graduate wrote a resume and sent it to a company that needs a specialist of his level. He was sure that he would be taken.

While the competitors sitting in line for an interview were worried, he calmly imagined himself in a new job. What was his surprise when the representative of the employer pointed to his resume as the reason for the refusal!

It turned out that, trying to present himself from the best side, the applicant wrote the following phrase:

  • I happened to develop software products for large companies, thereinincluding, for "A" and "B" and I have a certificate of successful implementation of one of them.

There is a comma after the union "including", but it should come after the turnover (in italics), and not break it. Apparently, the young man was afraid to put a comma before the "and". In vain.

This is how a competent specialist in his field can suddenly become a loser.

Should this phrase be replaced?

It should be noted that such revolutions can be joined without unions. For example:

  • There is a lot of boring information in this text .
  • There is a lot of boring information in this text about connecting turns.

In the second case, the union will be thrown out, but the meaning of this has changed a little. Now it follows from the sentence that boring information contains connecting turns. In the first sentence, this is not the only reason, some other is implied.

Some tend to replace uncomfortable words, write in simple sentences to avoid mistakes. Thus, the language is impoverished, deprived of turns of speech. Words that accurately express a thought are leaving. Ultimately, this leads to the impoverishment of the vocabulary and the inability to explain or prove anything.

Having dealt with the unions, it will be easy to pass the literacy test, and the mistakes of colleagues will only cause a smile. The best way to increase literacy is to read fiction. It is rich in expressive means, in it you can find all the techniques necessary for writing texts.

The main thing is not to give up, and everything will work out!
