A comma is a “soft stop”. It’s not a final as a period. It’s used to connect new ideas to old ones, and to tell the reader when to pause a moment in their thinking (or in their speaking, if they’re reading out loud). In long sentences, it’s also used to separate clauses, so the reader understands which modifiers apply to which words, etc.
I only slept for three hours last night, but I’m not tired today.
For dinner, there’s pasta, garlic bread, and green salad.
Despite the snow, the buses are running on time.
Anna’s parents are very, very proud of her.
Comma usage
Commas separate ideas or nouns (as in a list).

If you’re repeating words for emphasis, a comma will separate the repeated words so it’s clear you haven’t made a typo.
I really, really like chocolate.
Maggie has been a naughty, naughty dog.
A comma can change a noun to a verb.

The panda eats, shoots, and leaves.
A comma can change the person to whom you are speaking into the person about whom you are speaking, and determine the rest of the punctuation in the sentence.

Mary, is the farce today?
A comma can tell the reader to pause for a brief moment because what you’re about to say will add another mind-boggling idea.

Commas are also used to offset information (such as found in an appositive or an introductory clause).
