When I first started at Hidaya I hated wearing the hijab. I found it itchy and I absolutely despised wearing it during gym class

. I also thought it looked awful on me and in the first two weeks I was always styling my bangs and letting them out at the front so that everybody knew I had nice hair. Talk about being insecure. But then I got to know the other kids and it no longer felt awkward. I got used to it and I met girls who were wearing it full-time outside of school, like, voluntarily, and I started to really respect their courage. I was even a bit jealous because there I would be, ripping it off as soon as I was off school property, and there they would be, calmly and proudly stepping onto a train filled with students from schools all over without so much as a hint of fear or doubt. They looked so at peace with their identity and everybody got to know and respect them on their own terms.

ILL GIVE BRAINLY!Read the sentence.
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze, and then they bought a pumpkin.

Explanation:

Firstly, let's see if all the revised sentences make grammatical sense.

1. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze, and then they bought a pumpkin.

Sentence one is grammatically correct as it uses and to connect the two clauses.

2. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze; bought a pumpkin.

Sentence two is not grammatically correct as it has an unnecessary semi-colon with a dependent clause.

3. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze, they bought a pumpkin.

Sentence three does not use and to join the two clauses.

4. The visitors to the farm walked through the corn maze; and then they bought a pumpkin.

Sentence four like sentence two uses an unnecessary semi-colon that does not follow the semi-colon rule.

A semi colon should be used to join two independent clauses or to replace (and, or, but,etc)

Hope it isn't confusing, and it helped! :))
