Run-ons Each sentence below is a run-on. Fix each sentence by adding either a period, semicolon, or FANBOYS conjunction (For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So). Period Batman drove to the grocery store he left his wallet at home. Semicolon Batman drove to the grocery store he left his wallet at home. FANBOYS Batman drove to the grocery store he left his wallet at home.
the key is to identify the two independent clauses. remember that an independent clause contains a subject + predicate, and can stand by itself as a complete idea for the first case, put a period after the first independent clause, then treat the second independent clause as a new sentence (make sure to capitalize the first letter) for the second case, put a semicolon in between the clauses for the third case, put a comma after the first independent clause, then choose an appropriate conjunction (based on the context of the sentence) and then continue with the second independent clause
