    an addition: semicolons are also used in complex lists (ie, lists in sentences that have so many commas they become redundant and so a semicolon is used to make it read smoother)

    If anyone is wondeirng about the Rory Gilmore example, it is indeed a comma splice - not a complete sentence. The speaker could have been saying that in an informal tone, but in a formal sense, it most definitely does not work. "I live in two worlds" is an independent sentence, and "One is a world of books." also stands as an independent clause. Connecting these two clauses without any conjunctions in between simply with a comma is a grammatical error. Other than that, all good!

    Great video! I'm studying for the SAT right now and this is really helping me!
    I just don't really understand the difference between the examples provided in the colons section (time stamp 0:46) and in the commas section (3:09)
    I mean, they seem identical to me, bc both of them are enumerating/explaining elements
    "I only ask for 3 things in a friendship: loyalty, humor and maturity"
    "I live in two worlds, one is a world of books" --* it's more of an explanation than an enumeration but you get what I mean
    If you could clarify that for me it would mean a lot.
    Much love

    Hi I'm a rising freshman and I took 9th lit H in 8th grade where my teacher said commas always need a fanboy following so can you please clarify the comma example on clarity? Sorry I just didn't quite understand how it worked, and thank you

    • @therealdeets
      @therealdeets  5 месяцев назад

      hey! yeah no worries, i can understand how it can be a little confusing :)
      you only use a fanboy with a comma when you're dealing with 2 independent clauses (a group of words that can stand alone as a sentence because it has a subject and a verb). An example being... I wanted to go for a walk, but it started to rain.
      now sometimes... commas are used for clarity and don't necessarily need a fanboy conjunction after them. for example... when you're dealing with non-essential clauses (extra information to a sentence that isn't necessary for the main idea) you don’t use a fanboy conjunction in the sentence. An example being... My friend, who is a great cook, made dinner.

      hi :) a semicolon won't work because "one is a world of books" is not an independent clause (in other words.. the sentence can't function on its own) "one is a world of books" is a fragment
      remember that when you use a semicolon...both parts of the sentence you're connecting have to be independent clauses (this means each part should be able to function as a complete sentence on its own)

      @therealdeets  5 месяцев назад

      im so sorry for the late response..
      easy rule of thumb:
      if you can place a period between the two parts and they’re still complete sentences (they can stand alone), use a semicolon.
      example: I finished my homework; now I can watch TV.
      if you have a complete sentence followed by a fragment (like a list or an explanation), use a colon.
      example: I need three things: a pen, a notebook, and a calculator.
