An <em>asyndeton</em> is a sentence that doesn't have a conjunction where you would expect it to be. A <em>conjunction </em>is a word that can put two independent clauses (or complete sentences) together. Some examples of conjunctions include the words <em>and, </em><em>yet</em>, <em>but, or for,</em> and <em>nor.</em>

Examples of asyndetons include:
- The sun was shining; it was a beautiful day.
- The stadium was packed; it was the biggest football game of the year.
As you can see, the easiest way to create an asyndeton is to use a <em>semicolon</em>, (;) which can be used to replace a conjunction by connecting two complete sentences.
