At 1:32 -- after engineered I should add comma?

Each tool is engineered? hand-built, the quality...

  

Top answer

Each tool is engineered, hand-built and quality-checked right here ... Yes, you need the comma after "engineered". A comma before the "and" preceding the last item in a list (in this case after "hand-built") -- the so-called "serial comma" -- is optional and is included by some people.

  • Yes, you need the comma after "engineered".
  • A comma before the "and" preceding the last item in a list (in this case after "hand-built") -- the so-called "serial comma" -- is optional and is included by some people.
  • I don't normally use it myself, and in this case I would personally not really recommend it as it may give the impression that only the quality check happens "right here", which I believe is not the intended meaning.
