English – Dashes

 

Key Takeaways

 

  • If you see a dash in an answer choice, always look around for another dash in the sentence
  • Dashes work like commas, but they set aside a comment with a different tone
  • The SAT won’t force you to pick between correct usage of commas and correct usage of dashes
  • A dash can be alone if the portion of the sentence it separates runs to the end of the sentence
