Resumen:
When logicians work with multiple-conclusion systems, they use a metalinguistic comma , to aggregate premisses and/or conclusions. In this note, I present an analogy between this comma and Priors infamous connective TONK. The analogy reveals that these expressions have much in common. I argue that, indeed, the comma can be seen as a structural incarnation of TONK. The upshot is that, whatever story one has to tell about TONK, there are good reasons to tell a similar story about the comma in typical multiple-conclusion systems, and vice versa.
