Which word in the sentence, if any, should be followed by a semicolon? My parents are cleaning the house that means we must be expecting company. A. must B. There is no error in semicolon usage. C. cleaning D. house

Respuesta :


A semicolon separates two related independent clauses. There are two independent clauses in the sentence: "My parents are cleaning the house today" and "that means we must be expecting company." This means there should be a semicolon in the sentence. It would go after the word "house," because that is where the first clause ands and the second begins. Therefore, the answer is D. house.
