Getting error: "ISO C++ forbids comparison between pointer and integer [-fpermissive]" How do I fix?

I am making a program that converts an English sentence into pig latin. I keep getting the error "ISO C++ forbids comparison between pointer and integer [-fpermissive]" on line 16. any help?

void wordfinder();
string word;
string engSent;
int x;
int main()
{
    cout << "Enter a sentence: ";
    getline(cin, engSent);
    string word = "";
    for (x = 0; x < engSent.length(); x++)
    {
        if (engSent[x] == " " || engSent[x] == "," || engSent[x] == ".")
        {
            wordfinder();
            word = "";
        }
    }
    return 0;
}
void wordfinder()
{
    word = engSent.substr(0,engSent[x]);
    cout << word;
}

examine for characters not strings in:

if (engSent[x] == ' ' || engSent[x] == ',' || engSent[x] == '.')
