What about three, four, or more independent clauses? Is that allowed?
I think so! Go nuts though, rules are for suckers
Hell, I don't even use semi colon, I go full colon!
I think that second comma should be a semicolon. Also, is that an anal sex joke or am I reading too much into it?
:D
;D
(in standardized English) No, you can’t make them into a star with the semicolon in the center. Sentences are linear, so you can only connect two clauses at a time with one semicolon between them. However, you can chain clauses together, each time using a semicolon to join two independent clauses.
Except language changes over time, so if the star usage of the semicolon catches on and introduces nonlinear sentences, then have at it.
