    commas, dashes, or parentheses

    Nonessential appositive phrases can be separated from the rest of a sentence in three ways-with commas, with dashes, or with parentheses. Let’s look at example sentences that essentially mean the same thing:

    The best pet in the world, a dog, will always be known as "man’s best friend."

    The best pet in the world-a dog-will always be known as "man’s best friend."

    The best pet in the world (a dog) will always be known as "man’s best friend."
