Introducing my Language Tips Series
Some of my most popular posts on Instagram are my mini language ‘challenges’ – things like ‘Find the typo!’ or ‘Punctuate this!’.
In response to that, I’ve created a series of downloads to provide you with helpful tips on how to use different elements of written English.
In each download you’ll find:
- an explanation of what the language element is and what it looks like
- an overview of how to use it in your own writing, with relevant examples
- explanations of keywords that you need to know
- a detailed look at how and why the language element is used, with answers to common questions about its usage
Today’s Language Tips download: semicolons
This download is about one of the most avoided punctuation marks used in English – the semicolon!
