12. Introduction to Semicolons & Colons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3cKL tOpKkg

13. 1 st use of a Semicolon  The first appropriate use of the semicolon is to connect two related sentences. The pattern looks like this: Complete sentence + ; + complete sentence. Here is an example: My eighty-one-year-old grandmother still rides her Harley motorcycle; her toy poodle balances in a basket between the handlebars.

14. 2 nd Use of a Semicolon  You can also team up a semicolon with a transition to connect two complete sentences that are close in meaning. The pattern looks like this: Complete sentence + ; + transition +, + complete sentence.  Check out this example: My father does not approve of his mother cruising around town on a Harley motorcycle; however, Grandma has never cared what anyone thinks.

15. 3 rd Use of a Semicolon  Finally, use the semicolon to avoid confusion when you have complicated lists of items. The pattern looks like this: Item +, + More Information + ; + Item +, + More Information + ; + and + Item +, + More Information  Read the following example: On a Harley motorcycle, my grandmother and her poodle have traveled to Anchorage, Alaska; San Francisco, California; and Tijuana, Mexico.

16. Reminders about Semicolon Use Keep these three things in mind when you use a semicolon:  The two main clauses that the semicolon joins should be closely related in meaning.  Don't capitalize the word that follows the semicolon unless that word is a proper noun, one that is always capitalized.  Limit your use of semicolons; you should not scatter them throughout your writing. Semicolons are like glasses of champagne; save them for special occasions.

17. Use a Colon… after a complete statement in order to introduce one or more directly related ideas, such as a series of directions, a list, or a quotation or other comment illustrating or explaining the statement. For Example:  Here are three states that begin with M: Michigan, Mississippi and Maine.

18. …to introduce a list…  The daily newspaper contains four sections: news, sports, entertainment, and classified ads.

19. between the hour and minutes.  He said he would be at home by 5:30 p.m.

20. between chapter and verse in biblical references.  He always liked to refer to Genesis 1:18 when starting a speech.

21. Caution Space once between a colon and the next word, when the colon is used between words. Do not space between numerals and a colon when a colon is used to mark time or ratios.
