Is my assertion about semicolons and time sequences true?
In answering a question “Can i put a semi-colon here?” (I’d give you the link, but every time I try, the Answers system claims to be busy), I attempted to explain why the semicolon in
“He climbed the the chair and onto the table; he quickly sprinted to the slightly open fridge.”
is wrong. I stated:
“Yes, connecting two closely related sentences with a semicolon instead of a conjunction is a valid technique. But apparently the relationship can’t be just sequence in time. (I hadn’t realized this until I had to figure out WHY your example doesn’t work.)”
Am I correct that a) the example is an incorrect use of a semicolon and b) my sequence-in-time explanation is the reason? I’m morally certain of a), but maybe 80% sure about b)!
Yes, they are correct. Well done.
best answer please!
