Pam has a sister, who speaks perfect German.

Is there anything wrong with the punctuation?

Thanks

depends on the context (what doesn't!).

if the fact that her sister speaks German is not essential, just an extra bit tossed in, then all's good.

however, if it is essential (eg. otherwise you wouldn't know which sister) , skip the comma.

m.

You don't need the comma.
