Respuesta :

That sentence is incorrect.

The placing of comma after the word but is inappropriate.

The correct punctuation would be : He does not speak often, but when he does, everyone listens

hope this helps

Answer:

He does not speak often but when he does, everyone listens.

Explanation:

The word "but" is a conjunction here. The general rule for conjunction and punctuation is we cannot write comma after a conjunction. So " He does not speak often but, when he does, everyone listens." is incorrect because in the sentence after the conjunction 'but' comma is used which is wrong.

So the correct form is " He does not speak often but when he does, everyone listens."
