Something for people to discuss:

Tosfot discusses how you're supposed to say the phrase "Yehei Shmei Rabbah Mevarach L'alam Ulialmay Ulmaya." (Tosfot actually discusses the phrase translated into Hebrew)

The question is where to put the comma.

Either: "Yehei Shmei Rabbah, Mevarach L'alam Ulialmay Ulmaya."
Or: "Yehei Shmei Rabbah Mevarach, L'alam Ulialmay Ulmaya."

If I'm reading it correctly, the right way of saying it is the second way because the word Mevarech is an extension of the previous phrase. Right? Wrong?

Depends whom you ask.
Look at the Tur OC 56.
