Really appreciate a punctuation infographic, especially the one cited below, originally from Darin L. Hammond, blogger, and now available through various resources.
I think his comma rules need a bit more explanation, which I will provide in a later blog. And I disagree with one of his comments on parentheses (punctuation doesn’t always have to follow – unless it’s the end of the sentence as in this example). But, otherwise, this is pretty useful.
Of course, the challenge is that he assumes you already know what subject, verbs, clauses and prepositions are. Soooo let me know what your questions are!

Here is another, more recent, blog about punctuation from Grammarly (from author Lindsay Kramer), which you also might find useful: https://www.grammarly.com/blog/punctuation/.
Author’s Note on April 12, 2024 update: The infographic inserted in my original blog post is now unavailable. I hope the updated references I’ve provided will be useful.

Its like you learn my mind! You seem to understand a lot about this,
such as you wrote the book inn it or something.
I think that you could do with some percent to drive the message home
a little bit, but instead of that, this is excellent blog.
