OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

see semicolons make a sentence that is 2 turn into one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Cblount

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i wouldnt ask for ur help @shifuyanli

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so yea it is more likely A @pizza4dayz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You guys are arguing is by far immature. The answer would be - B. The car skidded, luckily no one was near it. It's grammatically correct compared to the other choices, end of discussion.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it is suppose to be incorrect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i looking for the incorrect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank u @von.co i reward u with a fan and a medal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you're looking for the incorrect answer, it would be D though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it dont matter von.co was right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A does not have anything tho so shouldn't A be right @von.co

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A semicolon, can replace a comma, so that means A. is grammatically correct also. * Choose D. as your answer, you can't complete a sentence after breaking it with a period. : )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but dosen't that stop the run on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@BrieiaKlarc, The question is looking for the incorrect way to stop a run-on, You can fix run-on's with commas, and semicolons are basically replacements of commas, they do they same ; A quick pause

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer choice A. correctly fixes it, while D. has the incorrect method of doing so. @BrieiaKlarc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i think i understand where your coming from
