A Semicolon May Be Used in Place of a Period to Connect Two In- Dependent Clauses When the Two Clauses Share a Close Relation- Ship WHAT IS A SEMICOLON? A semicolon (;) is a stronger mark of punctuation than a comma but not as strong as a period. A semicolon is used between equal grammatical elements such as independent clauses and items in a series. Note: Semicolons do not link dependent clauses to independent clauses . [Incorrect] Because it was snowing heavily ; we decided to stay home. [Correct] It was snowing heavily ; we decided to stay home. A semicolon may be used in place of a period to connect two in- dependent clauses when the two clauses share a close relation- ship. Mary went to the grocery store this afternoon ; she purchased food for tonight’s dinner. Tom didn’t have enough time to finish his exam ; his class was only an hour long. A semicolon can also be used to join two independent clauses together with a conjunctive adverb (i.e. however , neverthe- less , therefore ). The semicolon is placed after the first inde- pendent clause and before the conjunctive adverb, and a comma is needed after the conjunctive adverb in front of the second independent clause. Brad knew of many different roofers to do the job; however, he called Ulti- mate Roofers to do the job because the owner is his cousin. Maggie has always been an excellent skier ; nevertheless, her parents were always wary of having their little girl on the slopes. Semicolons can also be used to separate items in a list if the elements in the series already include commas. The top five most visited cities in the United States are: New York, New York ; Las Vegas, Nevada ; Los Angeles, California ; Orlando, Florida ; and Chicago, Illinois. The members of Bon Jovi include Jon Bon Jovi, vocalist and guitarist ; Richie Sambora, guitarist ; Tico Torres, drummer ; and David Bryan, key- boardist. Last modified 8/11/11 .

  • Jon Bon Jovi
    Jon Bon Jovi Jon Bon Jovi is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and actor, best known as the lead singer and founder of Bon Jovi. Throughout his career, he has released two solo albums and eleven studio albums with his band which have sold over 200 million albums worldwide. Jon Bon Jovi was born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr. in Perth Amboy, New Jersey the son of two former Marines, barber John Francis Bongiovi, Sr. and florist Carol Sharkey. He has two brothers, Anthony and Matthew. His father was of Sicilian and Slovak ancestry and his mother was of German and Russian descent. He has stated that he is a blood relative of Frank Sinatra. He spent summers in Erie, Pennsylvania, with his grandparents as a newspaper salesman. As a child, Bon Jovi attended St. Joseph High School, in Metuchen, New Jersey, during his freshman and sophomore years. He later transferred to Sayreville War Memorial High School in Parlin, New Jersey. // 1 / 9 Jon Bon Jovi Bon Jovi spent most of his adolescence bunking school to opt for music activities instead, and ended up playing in local bands with friends and his cousin Tony Bongiovi, who owned the then famous New York recording studio, The Power Station. As a result, his academic records displayed less than spectacular achievements and poor grades. By the time he was 16, Bon Jovi was playing clubs. It was not long before he hooked up with keyboardist David Bryan (real name: David Bryan Rashbaum), who played with him in a ten-piece rhythm and blues band called Atlantic City Expressway.
