How to use semicolon.

English

Answer:

Instead of using a comma and a coordinating conjunction to join two related independent clauses, a semicolon can be used instead (and, but, or, nor, for, so, yet). When you use the semicolon, make sure that the connection between the two independent clauses is clear even if the coordinating conjunction is not used in the sentence.

Explanation:

Hope it helps:)

Shelia E. is a singer and plays the drums. Which error is made in the above sentence? A. coordinating excessively B. lacking par
viva [34]

Answer:

B. lacking parallelism

Explanation:

The original sentence contains a predicate nominative (<em>singer</em>) and an action verb (<em>plays</em>), which shows lack of parallelism.

The best way to fix the error would be to use a parallel structure, which is the repetition of a certain grammatical form within a sentence:

"Shelia E. <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> the drums."  

Now the sentence uses two action verbs <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> in the present tense, and this is an example of parallelism.
