Answer:

The use of commas was incorrect.

Explanation:

The use was incomplete.  There need to be more commas to separate nouns in a group, like this:

  • Winter, spring, summer, and fall are all beautiful when you live in southern California.
  • Lena's favorite sports are tennis, swimming, and soccer.
  • Steve, Marco, and Harvey went to the library.
  • I went to the post office, the pharmacy, and the grocery store.

The statement regarding the usage of punctuation in the given sentences would be as follows:

1). Winter, spring summer and fall are all beautiful when you live in southern California. - Incorrect

2). Lena's favorite sports are tennis swimming, and soccer. - Incorrect

3). Steve, Marco, and Harvey went to the library. - Correct

4).  I went to the post office, the pharmacy and the grocery store. - Incorrect

The Comma(,)

  • "Comma" is denoted as the punctuation mark that has been employed to add a pause between the words or to separate two words or ideas from one another to keep their meaning intact.
  • In the given sentences, a list of items(sports, seasons, or places) are being presented, and therefore, a comma(,) would be required after every item in the list to separate them.
  • Thus, the first, second, and fourth sentences miss commas(,) in between the list, and therefore, they are incorrect.
