Are my commas in the right place in the following sentance?

"Finally to the Northwest." is not a sentence. Incorporate it into the rest of the prose. And whose or which Northwest are you talking about? And who is "they"?\n\n"Because of the lack of water and fertile soil in the Northwest, natives to the region had to grow plants able to survive the semi-arid conditions. These plants included the vitamin-rich edible nopal cactus and the maguey, or agave, a plant from which a type of Mexican liquor called mezcal could be made."

It's just badly written.\n\nIf the Europeans like soccer, it should say:\nI don't care AS much about soccer AS Europeans DO.\n\nIf the Europeans don't like soccer, it should say:\nLike Europeans, I don't care that much about soccer. \n\nor at least: I don't care that much about soccer, like Europeans. (with a comma)\n\nAs written, all we know about the Europeans is that the soccer I don't care about is somehow like them.

maybe an extra comma or two, otherwise it seems correct.

The semicolon should be later, as in:\n\nPhysical beauty: with disease it fades; with age it dies.

The statement number 1 is grammatically correct.\n(Other answerers - To be grammatically correct, a sentence should not be meaningful -- Consider this: I saw some cars flying near the bottom of the Pacific Ocean when I was eating iron sheets)

It is not grammatically correct.  First of all, the prepositional phrase "in full phase" should not be separated by a comma.  Secondly, it should probably be in a different spot.  Last of all, what is meant by "Venus in full phase"?  Shouldn't that be referring to the moon?  But, according to your question, try this sentence: "At midnight, I observed Venus in full phase."

1. Use commas to separate independent clauses when they are joined by any of these seven coordinating conjunctions: and, but, for, or, nor, so, yet.\n2. Use commas after introductory a) clauses, b) phrases, or c) words that come before the main clause.\n3. Use a pair of commas in the middle of a sentence to set off clauses, phrases, and words that are not essential to the meaning of the sentence. Use one comma before to indicate the beginning of the pause and one at the end to indicate the end of the pause.\n4. Do not use commas to set off essential elements of the sentence, such as clauses beginning with that (relative clauses). That clauses after nouns are always essential. That clauses following a verb expressing mental action are always essential.\n5. Use commas to separate three or more words, phrases, or clauses written in a series.\n6. Use commas to separate two or more coordinate adjectives that describe the same noun. Be sure never to add an extra comma between the final adjective and the noun itself or to use commas with non-coordinate adjectives.\n7. Use a comma near the end of a sentence to separate contrasted coordinate elements or to indicate a distinct pause or shift.\n8. Use commas to set off phrases at the end of the sentence that refer back to the beginning or middle of the sentence. Such phrases are free modifiers that can be placed anywhere in the sentence without causing confusion. (If the placement of the modifier causes confusion, then it is not "free" and must remain "bound" to the word it modifies.)\n9. Use commas to set off all geographical names, items in dates (except the month and day), addresses (except the street number and name), and titles in names.\n10. Use a comma to shift between the main discourse and a quotation.\n11. Use commas wherever necessary to prevent possible confusion or misreading.\n12. Don't use a comma to separate the subject from the verb.\n13. Don't put a comma between the two verbs or verb phrases in a compound predicate.\n14. Don't put a comma between the two nouns, noun phrases, or noun clauses in a compound subject or compound object.\n15. Don't put a comma after the main clause when a dependent (subordinate) clause follows it (except for cases of extreme contrast).\n\nPlease see link for examples

Looks fine to me. I don't think you need the comma- no, you don't need the comma when you use the subjunctive in that way, or it's incorrect. Make a tree of the sentence or put parenthesis around your phrases or something and you'll see what I mean. Just write it as, 'What you are saying is true for all that that "that" that that "that" refers to is correct.'\n\nNot sure whether it's the maximum, though, but I'll think about it.

It looks like a typo (a typing mistake) to me. Is that the entire sentence, or is there more? If there's more to the sentence, then the word might be "best-connected."

This is the third request from you that I have read. To "correct" your grammar would be tiresome. However, I did want to say that you have a way with words and write quite well. If you were my student, I would conference with you and give you hints on how to improve your grammar and some punctuation, the only weaknesses. Your descriptive passages are excellent. You are a good observer. Keep writing. You have a talent there.

lol okay I'll try to explain first of all its [()] only when nessary which is rare.\nNow it gets kind a weird but () can be used both in the middle and at the end of a sentance (with the period like this). But only if its short. (I know its weird but if whats inside is a complete idea and not a momantary pause with short bit of info it can actually go like this.) Hope this helps.

Technically, I guess there should be a comma- \n\n1. Use commas to separate independent clauses when they are joined by any of these seven coordinating conjunctions: and, but, for, or, nor, so, yet.\n\nThe game was over, but the crowd refused to leave.\nThe student explained her question, yet the instructor still didn't seem to understand.\nYesterday was her brother's birthday, so she took him out to dinner.

grammar not grammer. You put the comma anywhere your little heart desires. Grammar is power. Don't be a semi colon when you can be a full colon.

It ain't so! :) lol******* You aren't alone!\n\nIt gives me a headache trying to figure out where one sentence ends and the next begins. UGH...Don't get me wrong...I misspell an occasional word here and there but we are talking about "minor mistakes".
