There are several things that you should ask yourself when analyzing word choice, but the most important is to choose the shortest and simplest word that conveys the meaning you want.
Claim, Reasons,& Evidence
Explanation: Analyzing the Claim is the most important element about the use language in this way is to make claims (true or false) about some state of affairs in the world. One argument is as valid argument only if some of the propositions (the claims) are asserted as supporting the truth of another of the propositions (the conclusion). Those supporting arguments can only be valid if they follow a reasonable structure, with facts and evidences. Because those are the only tools we have to access and dialogue about the reality that surrounds us.

Dear Smith Family,
During the pandemic, I wasn't able to do fun things like going to the cinema or go to my friends birthday parties. All I could do was watch tv, clean the house , going to do online school and playing video games. I wish you and your family the best and stay strong.
Sincerely,

Choice: [A]: "comma" — is INCORRECT. Note that placing a "comma" would result in an error known as "comma splice".

Choice: [C]: "period" — is INCORRECT. Note that placing a "period" would be incorrect. Doing so would result in a new sentence that does not begin with a capital letter.

Choice: [D]: "no punctuation is needed" —is INCORRECT. Note that if the statement were left alone, the statement would be a "<u>run-on sentence</u>".

The correct answer is: [B]: "semicolon". If a new sentence could be formed; and if the ideas could connect; it is acceptable to place a "semicolon" between the "two potential statements to form one statement" ; and to NOT CAPITALIZE the first word of the "second [potential sentence]" —<u>unless</u> that "[second potential sentence] begins with a proper pronoun.
