Answer:

the one the question is refering to.

The writing 'rule' (myth) Churchill's reply satirizes is the 'Never end a sentence on a preposition' rule (i.g. as I intetionally did on the immediate sentence before this one). And his reply to it was something like 'This is the type of errant pedantry up with which I will not put.'

The 'rule' is a myth, yes, but of course what Churchill did was an exaggeration to sneeringly point out the ignorance of those who criticized him.

His sentence therefore was incorrect. One possible change to improve it could be: 'This is the type of errant pedantry which I will not put up with.'

Specially the 'up' and 'with' of 'put up with' could never go in the middle of a sentence, as 'put up with' is a phrasal verb, meaning the verb and the preposition must always be together in the correct order.

I was able to find some possible variations of what his sentence could have actually had been, but in none of them the 'up with' goes along with 'put', so either ways we can assume that his sentence was deliberately wrong.

Pick the sentence that uses a semicolon correctly.
mr_godi [17]
The sentence that uses a semicolon correctly is, "Everyone was looking at the ice sculpture as it melted; therefore, no one saw the table tip over." This sentence is an example of a compound sentence. A compound sentence consists of two independent clauses. The independent clauses here are, "Everyone was looking at the ice sculpture as it melted" and "therefore, no one saw the table tip over." We used the semicolon in this sentence to join two complete sentences. And take note that the word "therefore" is not a conjunction because it cannot connect two different sentences just like the words "and" and "but".
