✨Comma Splice

🔻A comma splice occurs when you divide two complete clauses with a comma. Although we may use this phrasing when we speak, it is always a mistake when you write.

❌Hand me the salt and pepper, the eggs are bland. ✘
❌You sat on my pastry, now I can’t eat it. ✘
❌The birds come to the feeder every day, I have to refill it constantly. ✘

🔻When two clauses are related, they should be joined by a comma
and a conjunction, or divided by either a semicolon or a period (if they belong in two separate sentences). If you examine the incorrect examples, you will notice that—in addition to the solution of using either a semicolon or a period—you might alternatively try using a conjunction such as because, so, or and.

✅You sat on my pastry, so now I can’t eat it. ✔️
✅You sat on my pastry; now I can’t eat it. ✔️

➕#Bonus:

🔻Although a semicolon is a handy replacement in a comma splice for related clauses, one should never separate unrelated clauses with a semicolon.

🔹The birds come to the feeder every day; tomorrow I leave for Zimbabwe.

It may have a nice ring to it, but the clauses have nothing to do with each other.

🔢 Writing Numbers

✨دائما تهجئة الأرقام في بداية الجمل::

❌15 people took selfies last year in dangerous situations.✖️

✅ Fifteen people took selfies.✔️

✨عندما يكون لديك قائمة بالأرقام ، كن منسقا لها بغض النظر عن عدد الأرقام التي يشير إليها كل منها:

❌Our colleagues have worked here for two, 5, and twelve years,
respectively.✖️

✅for two, five, and twelve years is consistent.✔️
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
✴️عندما يتعلق الأمر بكتابة الكسور ، قم بالواصلة (-) عند توضيحها ، ولكن لا تستخدم الفاصلة العليا:

❌I like three fourth’s of his songs.✖️
✅I like three-fourths of his songs.✔️
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

➕#Bonus:

⚪️الارقام الترتيبية "Ordinal numbers" تتحدث عن ترتيب الاشياء (first , second , third , etc.) بينما الارقام الاساسية "cardinal numbers" تحسب one, two, three, and ومابعدها .


⚪️ Few people actually write out sentences such as “This is the twenty-six thousandth time I have told you.” We might say these words, but we rarely write them. Instead, we usually write sentences such as “I have told you 26,000 times.”
