Either there is a comma or not. Do you need a comma before the how? Is there a comma in front of a word like or not? Comparative turnover and incomplete subordinate clause

Note. Whether the conjunctions ... or are not always repetitive. So, in the sentence I it is not clear whether Matvey Karev laughs at his own words or at the way students (Fed.) Look into his mouth, whether the union introduces an explanatory clause, and the union or connects homogeneous terms.

Therefore, the comma is not put if ... or connect homogeneous members of the sentence, and is put if they connect parts of the sentence.

Note. They are not interjections and, therefore, particles are not separated by commas: O, used when addressing, Well, Oh, Oh etc., used to express an intensifying shade, for example:

O field, field, who covered you with dead bones?(Pushkin).

But I do not want, O friends die(Pushkin).

N at well, Onegin? You are yawning?(Pushkin).

O NS you goy thou, Tsar Ivan Vasilievich!(Lermontov).

You know, he was going to "suffer" for a long time; he spoke to Evgeny Solovyov, Suler ...(M. Gorky).

Section 201. An open or close parenthesis is not preceded by a comma, semicolon, colon, or dash; all these characters are placed only after the closing parenthesis, for example:

He read the book, thinking about what he was reading, stopping to listen to Agafya Mikhailovna, who chattered tirelessly a; and at the same time, different pictures of the economy and future family life without connection appeared to his imagination(L. Tolstoy).

   "How boring it is!" - I exclaimed involuntarily(Lermontov). or:

   before the author's words a question mark, or an exclamation mark, or an ellipsis in accordance with the nature of the first part of direct speech, or a comma (if none of the indicated signs is required), and after them a dash;

   after the words of the author - a dot, if the first part of direct speech is a complete sentence, and a comma - if an incomplete, then a dash is put; if, in this case, direct speech is highlighted with quotes, then they are placed only before the beginning of direct speech and at the very end of it, for example:

   - Would you like some more rum? - I said to my interlocutor. - I have a white man from Tiflis; now it's cold(Lermontov).

   - Well, full, full! - said Pechorin, embracing him in a friendly way. - Am I not the same?(Lermontov).

   - My name is Thomas, - he answered, - and nicknamed Biryuk(Turgenev).

   - It will rain, - objected Kalinich, - the ducks are splashing over there, and the grass smells painfully(Turgenev).

Note 1.If the author's words contain two verbs with the meaning of the utterance, of which one refers to the first part of direct speech, and the other to the second, then a colon and a dash are placed after the author's words, for example:

- Come on, it's cold, - said Makarov and asked sullenly: - Why are you silent?(M. Gorky).

   I thought about how heavy and lazy he was.

   I tried to remember where I was that day exactly one year ago.

   Coffin stones slide
   Oh if it's true what then
   Silent graves empty -
   I call the shadow, I wait for Leila:
   To me, my friend, here, here!(Pushkin).
