Correcting comma splices:
A comma splice is an incorrect sentence made of two independent clauses connected with a comma.
Examples:
- I am living in a dormitory room, it is much too small for my roommate and me.
- First you notice all the exciting sights, later you notice the dirt.
You can correct a comma splice by:
1- Change the comma to a period or a semicolon:
- I am living in a dormitory room. It is much too small for my roommate and me.
- First you notice all the exciting sights; later you notice the dirt.
2- Change the comma splice into a sentence with a dependent clause.
that is much too small for my roommate and me. I am living in a dormitory room -
3- Use a conjunction such as and, but, or so to connect the two independent clauses.
- First you notice all the exciting sights, and later you notice the dirt.
The words then, however, therefore and later cannot be used to join two independent clauses.
