(btw, OP: do quotation marks go after the sentence punctuation or before it. The Merriam-Webster dictionary points out that the closing quotation mark always follows the punctuation at the end of the sentence. Personally, I swing both ways. What is your opinion on the matter?) |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1202402 United States 12/24/2010 07:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There once were great writers of great threads on this forum. Where has the semi-colon gone? Quoting: BullfrogI am a huge fan of semi-colons. They are useful for separating a list of words or phrases. Also, they can be used in the place of a period or a conjunction when two sentences are closely related to each other. While on this subject, please allow me to vent: The correct way to use the word "however" in many instances is like this: "The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain; however, it also rains in Denmark." |
