Question

Read the sentence and answer the question. I want to go to the symphony but I don’t have any money. Which correctly shows where a comma is needed in the sentence?

A. I want to go to the symphony but I don’t have, any money.
B. I want to go to the symphony but, I don’t have any money.
C. I want to go, to the symphony but I don’t have any money.
D. I want to go to the symphony, but I don’t have any money.

Answer 1

That would be D, marks the split between the two sentences forming the compound sentence.

Answer 2

The answer to your question would be that the option that correctly shows where a comma is needed in the sentence is the following one: I want to go to the symphony, but I don't have any money. That is, the correct option would be D.

You shold use a comma before any coordinating conjunction that links two independent clauses.

1) I want to go to the symphony (clause I)

2), but I don't have any money (clause II)
