What is this phrase

According to dictionaries, the phrase “including” is a compound (consisting of several words) coordinating conjunction (connecting homogeneous members of a sentence and parts of a complex sentence) conjunction. Refers to connecting. That is, he brings some additional information to the sentence, adding it to what is already available.

The conjunctions themselves are not separated 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 sentence. 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 highlighted (in the middle) or separated (at the end) with commas. Dashes are used less often.

Is there a need for a comma after “including”: rule

In the “Academic Directory”, paragraph 84, we read: “...Adjunct members of a sentence... are separated by commas.” The following mistake is often made here: understanding this phrase as an independent adjunct phrase, they put two commas on both sides. Thus, “including” is separated by commas as a connecting member of the sentence, being in fact a conjunction.

The mistake is that the second comma after this conjunction is placed too early. It should be placed after the attached information. The Union seems to be making an announcement: now there will be information. This information follows. And after them you need a comma.

Examples of correct and incorrect spelling

When is a comma needed after “including” and when not?

Example of correct spelling:

, including.

Example of incorrect spelling:

including, about connecting revolutions.

The part of the sentence that, with the help of this conjunction, complements what was said earlier is highlighted in italics. It should not be broken by a comma. It should only be highlighted, separated from the previous text. And here a comma is needed.

When to put a comma after a revolution

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

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

Here, if you remove the phrase, commas are not needed. The conjunction “and” excludes them. But it happens that even if you remove the phrase, commas are needed. This is required if an idea from the first or second part is being explained. Example:

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

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 conjunction “including”. They are given in order to show the emphasis of the turnover with this union. They will also stand out with another union. Example:

This text contains a lot of boring information. , namely about connecting revolutions, which only an academician can understand.

Knowing conjunctions, it is easy to understand where to put commas.

When a comma is not used

There are cases when they write “including” without commas. Example:

Previously, we occupied office number one hundred, and now we occupy number one hundred thirty-seven. It's a shame they moved, I liked it including ease of memorization.

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 conjunction, but a noun “number” in the prepositional case. Here's a more complicated example:

Due to the unrepaired vehicle fleet, field cultivation has been reduced. As we see, fluctuations in the amount of gross product occur including and due to the liquidation of an auto repair company.

Neither before nor after " including"There is no comma. Context is important here too. If you remove the conjunction, 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 automobile repair enterprise. Because of the phrase, it is clear that this reason is not the only one. You can rephrase this so that the connecting phrase becomes visible:

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

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

In common speech it might look like this:

It happened including and it's your fault.
It happened and through your fault as well.

Classic option:

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

Here the word “many” is supplemented with a phrase. It is implied, but not in the previous version. Here is an example of the movement of the tongue. This is how the majority began to speak, these constructions (with the missing explanatory word) are pronounced on the radio, they fly from the lips of politicians. Many sentences that were previously considered unacceptable constructions due to the lack of a generalizing word are now the norm.

When a proposal is made incorrectly

It happens that the sentence itself containing this conjunction is composed incorrectly. The rules stipulate that the connecting structure must refer to a specific word. If it is not there, there is nothing to add.

At the alumni meeting we recalled including and the Petrov twins.

Here the conjunction “including” is completely unnecessary; the comma in front of it speaks of an attached phrase. But there is just no word that needs to be added. Sounds ignorant. You can rephrase it like this:

At the alumni meeting, many classmates were remembered, including and the Petrov twins.

Why do you need to know this?

Not only schoolchildren, but also adults have to figure out where to put a comma. Imagine this situation: a graduate wrote a resume and sent it to companies that require a specialist of his level. He was sure that they would take him.

While his competitors sitting in line for an interview were worried, he calmly imagined himself in a new place of work. Imagine his surprise when the employer’s representative 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 had the opportunity to develop software products for large companies, innumber, for "A" and "B" and I have a certificate of successful implementation of one of them.

After the conjunction “including” there is a comma, but it should come after the turn (in italics), and not break it. Apparently, the young man was afraid to put a comma before “and”. In vain.

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

Is it worth replacing this phrase?

It should be noted that such phrases can be added without conjunctions. For example:

This text contains a lot of boring information. .
This text contains a lot of boring information. about connecting revolutions.

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

Some people try to replace awkward words and write in simple sentences to avoid mistakes. Thus, the language is impoverished and deprived of turns of speech. Words that accurately express the thought are gone. Ultimately, this leads to an impoverished vocabulary and the inability to explain or prove anything.

Having dealt with unions, it will be easy to pass the literacy test, and the mistakes of your colleagues will only make you 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!

Including - separated by commas?

If there are no other conjunctions before this conjunction, and it is used autonomously, then a comma is necessary, since it summarizes the old thought with the new one, while simultaneously introducing it.

For example: I earned money, including enjoying the process of earning money.

If there are other conjunctions before it, which already require a comma in front of them, then this conjunction is not introductory and there is no need to put a comma after it.

For example: I wasn’t upset, but actually sick.

No, a comma is only placed before a phrase. This is not an introductory word, but a complex sentence. This also includes that is, if, which, so that, as a result of which, since and the like, if they are in the middle of the sentence.

Combination including- this is an adjunctive union. And the discussion here should not be about this union in isolation.

Conjunctions themselves are not separated by commas.

With the union including Usually there is a whole turn that clarifies or complements what was said earlier.

For example.

I received congratulations on my anniversary from my university friends, including those living in Canada.

Union including a clause containing additional clarifying information is added, which is indicated in the first part of the sentence.

In this case, the entire connecting turn is separated by a comma from the previous part.

If such a phrase is located in the middle of a sentence, then it is highlighted with commas on both sides.

For example.

All friends, including newlyweds Katyusha and Andrey, agreed to celebrate the New Year at the dacha.

There is one nuance that is worth paying attention to.

It happens that the union including used together with another conjunction And or A.

In this case, these combinations are considered a single whole, and a comma is placed before the first conjunction.

For example.

Each child, including one-year-old Vanechka, will receive gifts under the Christmas tree.

In a letter, a comma must be inserted before writing.

The next comma is placed to close the qualifying phrase that begins with this phrase. At the same time, the subsequent comma is not needed if the phrase is at the end of the sentence.

Including being a union. Its function is to clarify or clarify.

including attaching other members of the sentence to itself and thus obtaining an adjunct phrase, which in writing is highlighted on both sides with commas.

Example sentences:

All the girls in my class, including Lena, took part in this action.

We all stayed after school, including Sasha.

the conjunction may be preceded by the conjunction and, which will be part of the connecting clause; a comma will be placed before the conjunction and.

Example sentence:

Everyone greeted the new boy in the class, including Dima.

In particular, it is mainly used for complementary phrases when something is listed.

For example:

Everyone had to go to clean up the area, including the hooligans who caused this cleanup to be organized.

But it happens that there is no need to highlight, for example, if we are talking about the word number:

This was a big number! Including all the other numbers, it was much more than a million!

Words also attach a clarifying member of a sentence. And clarifying members of the sentence are separated by commas. Example sentence: All the guys, including Vitya and Natasha, went to see the mountain lake.

Conclusion: the words themselves, including commas, are not highlighted, but the phrase that is attached with the help of these words is highlighted.

Good afternoon. There are different cases when a conjunction needs to be separated with commas, and when it is not worth doing this at all.

If you have connecting phrases that begin with a conjunction, you also need to separate them.

But if a conjunction is preceded by such conjunctions as a and and, then this conjunction should not be separated with commas.

Including a fairly frequent connecting phrase, adding to what has been said, pointing to a part of the whole. We must place a comma before this conjunction; there is no need to place it after. For example: I was looking for my wallet everywhere, including in the car.

I would like to draw your attention to a mistake that is often made when using this phrase: it is necessary to point to the WHOLE, whatever it is. In our example, this word is everywhere. To say: I was looking for my wallet, including in the car, is incorrect.

It happens that a given phrase is preceded by the conjunction a or and. In this case, we will put a comma before the construction and including or and including.

It is not the union itself that requires separation, but the turnover in which it is usually included. This includes a connecting conjunction, but its main functions are clarification or addition, so the entire phrase should be separated by commas. As an example, consider a sentence from the work of Ilf and Petrov:

This example shows that this conjunction performs a clarifying function and is therefore separated by commas.

Or another example: Your arguments have nothing to do with common sense and can only be considered as a hypothesis, and even then, only that.

In the last example, the union itself acts as a clarification.

Including and among other things

Many people use conjunction incorrectly "including"(option "including"). Here are examples of incorrect use of this conjunction:

1) *“... because they killed, shot, slaughtered, including a huge number of priests” (Ksenia Larina, “Minority Opinion”, “Echo of Moscow” 06/28/2013);
2) *“...She [Evgenia Vasilyeva] has house arrest, but he allows her to take walks, including near the boutiques where this woman was seen” (Oksana Chizh, “Minority Opinion”, “Echo of Moscow” 07/08/2013);
3) *“Well, I can say that, apparently, already including something is starting to reach the supreme Russian authorities” (Dmitry Muratov, “Special Opinion”, “Echo of Moscow” 07/09/2013).

“Including” is a conjunction that should be used when a member of a sentence is added that names a part of the whole that is being discussed in the previous fragment of the sentence. Let's try to correct the above suggestions:

1) ... because they killed, shot, slaughtered innocent people including priests;
2) She has house arrest, but he allows her to go for walks everywhere, including near boutiques ;
3) ... apparently already before various government institutions something is starting to dawn on me, including to the supreme Russian government.

We see that to the left of the connecting phrase, formed using the conjunction "including (and)", there is a word or combination of words that names a certain whole: “innocent people”, “everywhere”, “to various state institutions”. A member of a sentence, joined by the conjunction “including (and),” names a part of this whole, explaining, specifying information of a generalized nature. Priests are part of the whole “innocent people”, boutiques are part of the whole, designated by the word “everywhere”, and the supreme Russian government is part of what we called the phrase “various state institutions”.

The reason for the erroneous use of the conjunction “including (and)” probably lies in the semantic proximity of it and the combination of the preposition and the adjective “among other things.” The preposition "among" means " V number, as part of someone, something,” and the adjective “other” means “the rest, another.”

Here is an example of the erroneous use of the conjunction “including”:

*“What is happening to our economy, namely economic growth is slightly more than 1% and everyone is talking about recession, stagnation, is including the result of this kind of manual control” (Evgenia Albats, “Minority Opinion”, “Echo of Moscow” 06/25/2013).

But if instead of “including” we say “among other things”, it will be correct. Cm.:

“What is happening with our economy, namely economic growth is slightly more than 1% and everyone is talking about recession, stagnation, is among other things the result of this kind of manual control.”

Wrong:

*“These outsourced attacks are given to cybercriminals, bandits, people who engage in including child pornography, pedophilia, that’s all that our Duma is fighting so hard against in the corrupted West” (Yulia Latynina, “Access Code”, “Echo of Moscow” 06/22/2013).

But this would be correct:

“These outsourced attacks are given to cybercriminals, bandits, people who engage in among other things and child pornography, and pedophilia, and everything that our Duma is fighting so hard against in the corrupt West.”

In some cases, you can do without the conjunction “including” and the prepositional-case combination “among other things.” For example:

These attacks are outsourced to cybercriminals, bandits, people who online engage in child pornography, pedophilia, and everything that our Duma is fighting so hard against in the corrupt West.
