Does a comma come after or before quotation mark?

It depends on the situation! Here's a breakdown:

1. Comma inside the quotation marks:

* If the comma is part of the quoted material, it goes inside the quotation marks.

* Example: "I'm going to the store," she said.

2. Comma outside the quotation marks:

* If the comma is not part of the quoted material, it goes outside the quotation marks.

* Example: She said, "I'm going to the store."

Important Note: This rule applies to both single and double quotation marks.
