Which of the following correctly uses a semicolon?
Dinner; is the most important part of my day.
After a good dinner; I like to have something sweet.
My favorite thing to eat; is dessert.
I like ice cream; it is delicious.
pls help me
the person above me is wrong, here are the answers:
1: The stadium is located next to the school; it does not take long to walk there.
2: a part of a sentence that can stand alone
3: a sentence with two independent clauses and no dependent clauses
4: a comma
Trust at your own will. There is no grade guard.

ALL ARE RIGHT you can do it lol you are welcome😘😀😀
I took one for the team, Tubbo is right with all answers
An independent clause like Ms. Sue was talking about, means wherever the semicolon is, it is like a period, so the two sentences it would make, would have make sense as a sentence.
So:
a)Dinner. Is the most important part of my day.
b)After a good dinner. I like to have something sweet.
c)My favorite thing to eat. Is dessert.
d)I like ice cream. It is delicious.
The only answer that makes sense is D. The two phrases operate as independent clauses.
Does this make sense now?
