Discussion Groups / English Usage / May 2009comma before 'of which'?
I'm unsure about commas and "of which." Is the sentence below correct, or should I omit the comma before "of which"? Is the comma necessary? I'm copyediting and can only alter the text for correct punctuation/grammar. "This number was reduced to 33, of which only 16 reported an empirical research study using focus groups." > I'm unsure about commas and "of which." > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > "This number was reduced to 33, of which only 16 reported an empirical > research study using focus groups." The comma is both correct and necessary in that particular sentence. Regards Jonathan |
