1.
2. COLON
TWO USES…
• to introduce a list
:

sleeping bag, dried food and a positive
attitude.
• to introduce a statement which explains or clarifies a
previous statement in the same sentence

No
5. • Semicolons are mainly used
•
to separate two closely related statements. So, when the
sentences make sense by themselves, but are close (like cousins),
we use a semicolon.
•

my way over to ask her for her number.
•
;

which of these needs a semicolon, and which full
stop
