A comma tells the reader to pause slightly. It separates items in a list, and separates an introductory word from the rest.
📋 In a list
"I bought apples, bananas, and mangoes."
👋 After an introductory word
"Yes, I have finished my homework." "However, it started raining."
Quotation marks show the EXACT words a person said.
