Which punctuation is used between sentences that are grammatically independent?

A. Hyphen
B. Comma
C. Colon
D. Semicolon
Correct answer is: D. Semicolon
β€’ A semicolon (;) is used to connect two closely related but independent clauses.
β€’ Each part before and after the semicolon must be a complete sentence on its own.
β€’ Unlike a comma, which may cause a comma splice error if used incorrectly, a semicolon properly links the clauses.
β€’ A colon (:) introduces explanations, lists, or examples, not two standalone sentences.
β€’ A hyphen (-) is used to join words or parts of words, not independent clauses.
βœ… Therefore, the correct answer is Semicolon, as it ensures grammatical independence while showing a close relationship between the ideas.
