1 Avoiding Run-on Sentences, Comma Splices, and Fragments, ; Getting Your Punctuation Right!
2 What Does a Comma Signal? A comma signals a pause. (It tells the reader to slow down briefly, but then keep going until the thought is completed.) Because I like grammar, I like this class.
3 What Do Periods & Semicolons Signal? Semicolons and periods signal a full stop. Idea is complete. STOP! I love grammar. I love this class. I love grammar ; I love this class.
4 What Is a Run-on Sentence? A run-on is a sentence error caused by running one sentence into another, without putting any punctuation in between. We all like grammar we all love this class. Run-on
5 What Is a Comma Splice?, A comma splice is a sentence error caused by putting just a poor, weak comma between two complete sentences. We all like grammar, we all love this class.
6 How Can I Correct Comma Splices and Run-ons? The 1st way is to Separate them with a period, creating two complete sentences. STOP We all like grammar. We all love this class.
7 Now you try! Use a period to correct these run-ons and comma splices. These punctuation rules aren t hard I know how to avoid run-ons. These punctuation rules aren t hard. I know how to avoid run-ons. Correct! My new supervisor has been making all sorts of changes, she is really causing problems. My new supervisor has been making all sorts of changes. She is really causing problems. Correct!
8 How Can I Correct Comma Splices and Run-ons? The 2 nd way is to Link them with a semicolon; this creates two complete sentences just as a period does, but the second sentence doesn t start with a capital letter. STOP! We like grammar ; we love this class. No caps!
9 How Can I Correct Comma Splices and Run-ons? The 3 rd way is to End the first sentence with a semicolon and begin the second with a conjunctive adverb or transitional. STOP We like grammar ; therefore, we love this class.
10 Now you try! Use a semicolon and a transitional word like therefore or however to correct this comma splice. I m not going to give up, however, I do sometimes get discouraged. I m not going to give up; however, I do sometimes get discouraged. Correct!
11 How Can I Correct Comma Splices and Run-ons? The 4 th way is to Join the two sentences with a comma and one of the FANBOYS. (FOR, AND, NOR, BUT, OR, YET, SO) We all like grammar, and we all love this class.
12 Now you try! Use one of the FANBOYS to correct this run-on sentence. I want a raise I want more vacation days. I want a raise, and I want more vacation days. Correct!
13 How Can I Correct Comma Splices and Run-ons? The last way is to comma splice Join the two separate sentences into one, with a subordinating conjunction or relative pronoun. We all like grammar, we all love this class. dependent clause Because we all like grammar, we all love this class. All students who like grammar love this class. OK! dependent clause
14 Main Cause of Sentence Errors Confusing the Different Kinds of Joining Words. Refer to your handbook or the punctuation summary on the GAS website if you aren t sure which kind of word it is and what punctuation is needed. STOP
15 Let s try a few, just to make sure you can catch any punctuation errors!
16 Which is correct? I understand run-ons, however, I m still having trouble with comma splices. I understand run-ons; however, I m still having trouble with comma splices.
17 Which is correct? I m really good with punctuation, because I have been practicing so much. I m really good with punctuation; because, I have been practicing so much.
18 Which is correct? I ve been given a number of new duties, for example, I now have to do all the filing. I ve been given a number of new duties; for example, I now have to do all the filing.
19 Which is correct? I ve been given lots of new duties, for example filing and community outreach. I ve been given lots of new duties; for example, filing and community outreach. Did we catch you on this one? Remember, you can t use a semicolon unless the words on both sides of the semicolon form complete sentences.
20 Which is correct? This grammar practice is useful; although, I sometimes wish we didn t have to do so much of it. This grammar practice is useful, although I sometimes wish we didn t have to do so much of it.
21 You ve got it! No more fragments, comma splices, or run-on sentences ever again! The END!
