<em>e.g. I travelled to Miami, Florida; Austin, Texas; and Los Angeles, California.</em>
- to join independent clauses that are closely related in thought:
<em>e.g. When I arrived, I thought I would have time to buy a snack; I didn't.</em>
- and many more

<em>e.g. She didn't study; </em><em>thus</em><em>, she failed the test.</em>
