They have no spaces before them, but one or two spaces after. Applications of the semicolon in English include: * Between closely related independent clauses not conjoined with a co-ordinating conjunction: ★ "I went to the swimming pool; I was told it was closed for routine maintenance." ★ "A man chooses; a slave obeys." * Between independent clauses linked with a transitional phrase or a conjunctive adverb: ★ "I like to eat cows; however, I don't like to be eaten by them." * Between items in a series or listing containing internal punctuation, especially parenthetic commas, where the semicolons function as serial commas: ★ "She saw three men: Donald, who came from New Zealand; Jon, the milkman's son; and George, a gaunt kind of man." ★ "Several fast food restaurants can be found in each of London, England; Paris, France; Dublin, Ireland; and Madrid, Spain." ★ "Examples of familiar sequences are: one, two, and three; a, b, and c; and first, second, and third." 分号後面跟着小写字母，除非是特殊名词。分号前面没有空格，後面则有一或两个空 格。英文中分号的用法如下： * 两个高度相关的独立子句且没有连接词 ★ "I went to the swimming pool; I was told it was closed for routine maintenance." ★ "A man chooses; a slave obeys." * 两个用转折词或连接副词连结的独立子句 ★ "I like to eat cows; however, I don't like to be eaten by them." * 一连串的清单事物或其中有符号（尤其是插入型的逗号），此时分号用法如逗号。 ★ "She saw three men: Donald, who came from New Zealand; Jon, the milkman's son; and George, a gaunt kind of man." ★ "Several fast food restaurants can be found in each of London, England; Paris, France; Dublin, Ireland; and Madrid, Spain." ★ "Examples of familiar sequences are: one, two, and three; a, b, and c; and first, second, and third." 不过我们都知道只用 wiki 会被笑不专业 （不爽自己写阿） 那我们来看看 Universary Purdue 的 Online Writing Laboratory 中怎麽写的？ Commas vs. Semicolons in Compound Sentences A group of words containing a subject and a verb and expressing a complete thought is called a sentence or an independent clause. Sometimes, an independent clause stands alone as a sentence, and sometimes two independent clauses are linked together into what is called a compound sentence. Depending on the circumstances, one of two different punctuation marks can be used between the independent clauses in a compound sentence: a comma or a semicolon. The choice is yours. Comma (,) Use a comma after the first independent clause when you link two independent clauses with one of the following coordinating conjunctions: and, but, for, or, nor, so, yet. For example: ★ "I am going home, and I intend to stay there." ★ "It rained heavily during the afternoon, but we managed to have our picnic anyway." ★ "They couldn't make it to the summit and back before dark, so they decided to camp for the night." Semicolon (;) Use a semicolon when you link two independent clauses with no connecting words. For example: ★ "I am going home; I intend to stay there." ★ "It rained heavily during the afternoon; we managed to have our picnic anyway." ★ "They couldn't make it to the summit and back before dark; they decided to camp for the night." You can also use a semicolon when you join two independent clauses together with one of the following conjunctive adverbs (adverbs that join independent clauses): however, moreover, therefore, consequently, otherwise, nevertheless, thus, etc. For example: ★ "I am going home; moreover, I intend to stay there." ★ "It rained heavily during the afternoon; however, we managed to have our picnic anyway." ★ "They couldn't make it to the summit and back before dark; therefore, they decided to camp for the night." For more information about compound sentence patterns, see the Purdue OWL handout on Sentence Punctuation Patterns. 复合句中的逗号与分号 一组包含主词及动词且具有完整意义的单词群，即为句子或独立子句。有时候一个独 立子句即可成为句子；有时候句子则是两个独立子句连结成的复合句。在这前提下， 以下两种符号可能有一种必须被使用在你的复合句中：逗号或句号。 逗号（,） * 当你在两个独立子句中的使用以下对等连接词时－and、but、for、or、nor、so、 yet： ★ "I am going home, and I intend to stay there." ★ "It rained heavily during the afternoon, but we managed to have our picnic anyway." ★ "They couldn't make it to the summit and back before dark; they decided to camp for the night." 分号（;） * 当没有任何连接词在你的独立子句之间时： ★ "I am going home; I intend to stay there." ★ "It rained heavily during the afternoon; we managed to have our picnic anyway." ★ "They couldn't make it to the summit and back before dark; they decided to camp for thenight" * 你也可以在加入以下这些连结副词连结两独立子句时使用分号－however、morever、 therefore、consequently、otherwise、nevertheless、thus等： ★ "I am going home; moreover, I intend to stay there." ★ "It rained heavily during the afternoon; however, we managed to have our picnic anyway." ★ "They couldn't make it to the summit and back before dark; therefore, they decided to camp for the night." 更多的问题可以加入五五六六粉丝俱乐部询问 :) 既然都提供了五五六六粉丝俱乐部的连结 （Sentence Punctutation Patterns） 不去的话总说不过去 （仅列出有关分号的部份） Sentence Punctuation Patterns Pattern Three: Compound Sentence This pattern is an example of a compound sentence with a semicolon. Independent clause [ ; ] independent clause [ . ] Example: Doctors are concerned about the rising death rate from asthma; they are unsure of its cause. Pattern Four: Compound Sentence This pattern is an example of a compound sentence with an independent marker. Independent clause [ ; ] independent marker [ , ] independent clause [ . ] Examples of independent markers are the following: therefore, moreover, thus, consequently, however, also. Example: Doctors are concerned about the rising death rate from asthma; therefore, they have called for more research into its causes. 句子中的标点符号 第三型：复合句 这是分号最基本的范例句型。 独立子句 [ ; ] 独立子句 [ . ] Example: Doctors are concerned about the rising death rate from asthma; they are unsure of its cause. 第四型：复合句 这是分号与连接副词结合的最基本句型。 独立子句 [ ; ] 连接副词 [ , ] 独立子句 [ . ] 连结副词大致有以下几种： therefore、moreover、thus、consequently、however、 also。 Example: Doctors are concerned about the rising death rate from asthma; therefore, they have called for more research into its causes. -- 如果你像我一样没料，那你就乖乖推文吧。 NY-Yankees --
