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. <u>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</u>. Thus, the final sentence reads as:
'The sun is shining; however, it is quite a windy day.'
