Is it okay to separate adjectives with a comma? Since my sentence has three adjectives, I added them just like how we would in English to separate a list containing three or more items (no comma if the list contains only two).
彼の彼女は綺麗で、親切で、背が高いです。
His girlfriend is beautiful, kind, and tall.
Is there an equivalent rule regarding comma usage in Japanese?
There are basic rules about the use of commas in Japanese but these are not absolute.
I think a writer can use commas as they like to make a sentence easier to read.
And I don't think there is a clear rule in Japanese as you say.
