My favourite language joke:
What's the difference between a cat and a comma?
One's got claws at the end of its paws, the other's a pause at the end of a clause
*fixed order
What do you call Santa's little helpers?
Subordinate Clauses
But a comma goes before the pause.
yeah doesn't even work with the classic joke format, in which the words switch places. I'm sure the joke should actually be:
one has claws at the end of its paws, one denotes a pause at the end of a clause.
Yes I did mix up the order of the words cause of poor sleep. Thanks for correcting
