Answer:

- The sun is shining; however, it is quite a windy day.

Explanation:

Punctuation is elucidated as the set of signs or symbols(like a comma, full stop, question mark, exclamation mark, colon, etc.) that indicate the grammatical construction of the sentences to the readers that assists the readers to read it accordingly. It not only enhances the readability of the sentences but also clarifies its meaning.

As per the question, the given sentence could be punctuated accurately as mentioned above. The use of a semicolon(;) helps link two independent clauses('the sun is shining' and 'it is quite a windy day') while a comma(,) after however signals that it is functioning as an adverbial conjunct to link the clauses. Thus, the final sentence reads as:

'The sun is shining; however, it is quite a windy day.'

In Galatians 3:1–2, the apostle Paul commended the Galatians for their actions. TrueFalse

stepladder [879]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

This is the NIV verse of Galatians 3:1-2:

1 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. 2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard?

He is calling out the Galations and is not commending or celebrating their actions.

I hope this helps! :)
