- Yes, we use a comma before a coordinating conjunction when joining two independent clauses.
For example: He was tired, but he kept working.
- No comma is required when the parts are not complete sentences.
For example, He was tired but kept working.

For example, Siya was riding a bicycle. Here the emphasis is on Siya instead of on the bicycle.
