Is the sentence correct?
This is related to my earlier question "Which is the correct verb?"
I have amended the sentence as follows:
The scientific terms - carbon, oxygen and hydrogen - are called earth, water, fire, wind and space in Buddhism.
Is the sentence correct, especially in regard to punctuation?
Thanks.
