When connecting related but independent clauses of a sentence

Semicolons are correctly and effectively used when connecting related but independent clauses of a sentence.

The semicolon (;) is a punctuation mark that separates major sentence elements. A semicolon can be used between two closely related independent clauses, provided they are not already connected by a coordinating conjunction.

The semi colon is employed to connect similar ideas that are independently placed in sentences. If you join the ideas with a semi colon, you don't have to use conjunctions.

What does Robert Frost accomplish by using blank verse in his poems?
lapo4ka [179]
Hey there!

The most common belief for why he did this was to promote originality. Most poets in that time used rhyming meters, and they still do today. In fact, you were probably taught rhyming meters in school - they follow rhythm and pattern that isn't subject to change.

Robert Frost wanted to break the rules. Considering the nonexistent popularity of the style he intended to use, he created an entire new type of poetry and writing by breaking the rules themselves. There was no rhyme, but there certainly was reason.

Hope this helps!

Charm, v. enchant, captivate, fascinate, mesmerize
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

B). Charm, n. attraction, appeal, charisma.

Explanation:

According to the context of the given sentence, the word 'charm' has been employed as a noun being followed by the determiner. Therefore, option A goes incorrect. Option C becomes incorrect as it goes out of the context of the sentence. Thus, only option B corresponds by functioning as a noun and accomplishes the meaning of the sentence and the sentence would imply 'Morton had enough attractiveness/appeal/charisma(charm) that he could win even the coldest of hearts with his smile'. Therefore, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

I am outgoing and friendly. I like to talk to people and join various clubs and sports teams. I am constantly on the go, if I am relaxing, it drives me crazy so to say.

I need her in my life to calm down my craziness, and I know she needs my spunk.
