<h3>How to use semicolons</h3>

When punctuating sentences, we must pay attention to the correct use of semicolons. Let's use the sentences provided in the question to see the proper use:

Sentence 1 - Correct. We should place a semicolon before a clause introduced with "however."

Sentence 4 - Correct. We use semicolons between independent clauses that are not joined by a conjunction.
