Q. Does a comma go after i.e. or e.g.? A.: By nature, they are preceded by a mark of punctuation, usually a comma. Generally both are followed by a comma in American English, though not in British English. E.g. may also be followed by a colon, depending on the construction. In British English, it is often written as eg with the periods omitted. |
