Join the elements of a list, in correct english

Create a function join that takes a List and produces a string containing an english language concatenation of the list. It should work with the following examples:
join([Apple, Banana, Carrot]) = "Apple, Banana, and Carrot"
join([One, Two]) = "One and Two"
join([Lonely]) = "Lonely"
join([]) = ""

let join list =

match list' with
| [] -> s
| [w] -> join' [] (s ^ " and " ^ w)
| w :: ws -> join' ws (s ^ ", " ^ w)
match list with
| [] -> ""
| w :: ws -> join' ws w
