The example of dialogue that is punctuated correctly is: "Be careful, because the floor is wet," he warned. In this sentence, the comma is placed inside the quotation marks, which is the correct placement according to standard English punctuation rules. The sentence also correctly identifies the speaker with the word "he warned."
