See also: Template:,

This template is used to display either nothing, a comma, or the word and, depending on its parameters. It is used when displaying a comma-separated list of items when the number of items is not known.

As of 2023 it seems to only be used in {{Swadesh list family}}, which is itself used in Swadesh lists.

Parameters[edit]

This template takes |1= (optional) and |2= (optional). If |1= is not given or is empty, nothing is displayed. If only |1= has a nonempty value, then ", " (a comma followed by a space) is displayed. If both parameters have nonempty values, then " and " this displayed.
