    This document discusses different punctuation used to connect clauses in sentences, including coordinators, semicolons, colons, and conjunctive adverbs. It provides examples of proper and incorrect usage of these punctuation marks. Specifically, it addresses using coordinators like "and" and "but" to join two main clauses as equal in importance. A semicolon should be used to connect clauses without a coordinator when the connection is stronger than a comma but not as final as a period. A colon can also connect two clauses when the second clause provides a definition or explanation of the first. The document cautions against common punctuation errors like "comma splices" and "run-on" sentences when improperly connecting two independent clauses.

    2.7.

    5 Choosing between a coordinator, colon, semi-colon, or a


    conjunctive adverb
    1) Coordinator and Correlative conjunction
    A coordinator (and, but, so,) establishes a basic relationship between two clauses. The
    correlative conjunctions (not only X but also Y, both X and Y) put an equal emphasis on
    both clauses in the sentence and can be an exception to the general rule that there is only
    one main idea in a sentence
    EXAMPLE
    The proposed method is faster and more accurate than the conventional method.
    The proposed method is not only faster, but also more accurate than the conventional
    method.

    2) Semi-colon and Colon


    The fewer words between clauses, the stronger the connection. If you want to make a
    stronger connection between two clauses, then choose the semi-colon.
    EXAMPLE
    The experiment was a disaster, so we had to start again.
    The experiment was a disaster; therefore, we had to start again.
    The experiment was a disaster; we had to start again ( the strongest connection )
    A colon can also join two main clauses if the information after the colon is a definition or
    anexplanation. A colon, not a semi-colon, also introduces a list.
    EXAMPLE
    They can be divided into three main approaches: frequency, spatial, and temporal.
    And I recommend that you include the second comma to prevent any confusion. If we dont
    follow this rule, a few sentences can be confusing to read.
    EXAMPLE
    X:
    The new cell phone design has three areas of improvement: cost, color and design
    and clarity and reception.
    CORRECT: The new cell phone design has three areas of improvement: cost, color
    and design, and clarity and reception.
    (comma)

    3) Sentence structure punctuation errors in coordination


    Understanding coordination will also help you avoid one of the most common sentence
    structure mistakes. Have a look at the following sentence:
    EXAMPLE

    X: We need to design a new system, it must be three times faster than the current one.

    This is comma splice mistakes.


    This sentence has two main clauses: 1) We need to design a new system, and 2) it must be
    three times faster than the one we have now. Therefore, we cannot join the clauses with a
    comma because it is not one of the options we saw for coordination.
    A similar error is called a run-on sentence.
    EXAMPLE
    X: We need to design a new system it must be three times faster than the current one.
    The solution is to use one of the three ways to join a compound sentence, subordination, or
    to break it up into two sentences by putting a period between the clauses.
    Coordination solutions
    CORRECT: We need to design a new system, but it must be three times faster than the current
    one.
    CORRECT: We need to design a new system; it must be three times faster than the current one.
    CORRECT: We need to design a new system; however, it must be three times faster than the
    current one.
    Subordination solutions
    CORRECT: We need to design a new system that must be three times faster than the current one
    Separate sentences
    CORRECT: We need to design a new system. It must be three times faster than the current one.
